Scope and content

Black ink drawing on white paper board, 16 inches (40 cm.) by 14.5 inches (36 cm.) wide. Signed "Orr" lower right, with label printed "Copyright: 1954: By The Chicago Tribune". On back, stamped "Engraving Dept 1954 Apr 13 PM 2 41". A peasant, carrying a whip, with a hammer and sickle (symbol of the then Soviet Union) on his chest holds a bag of god labeled "Trade with Russia." He also points with his other hand to a hill in the distance with a cross with a body hanging, under it the words "Betrayal of civilization." The reference is to Judas's betrayal of Jesus for his crucifixion.
