Flyers passed out at the Hollywood antiwar march & rally.
hollywood4.jpg, image/jpeg, 432x323
I printed 5,000 of these colorful flyers for the mass march down Hollywood Blvd. The image is a stylized bomb in the shape of a certain cartoon character, the legend reads "STOP THE BOMBS." The bombs of course are not just of the explosive variety. Commercial U.S. culture exported around the world is resented by many as "cultural imperialism."
The best moment I had while passing these flyers out came when a young man took one, stopped in his tracks laughing, and said "This is great! I WORK for Disney!"
