Item Description
1-5/8" litho depicts "Tojo" as a snake with buck-teeth and Japanese military hat. The snake's body is portrayed as tied in a knot with two parts of the body going through open areas along the bottom edge of a black panel apparently representing some kind of an industrial press. Text on the black panel reads "For Freedom's Sake/We'll Crush The Snake/Buy Bonds & Stamps." Tiny 1/16" scratch at upper left of the text area but other wear on the piece is all but microscopic in nature. The only example we've seen in five decades. Exc. Comes with Hake's COA.
