This poster was printed in 1969. It depicts Mao and one of his generals during the Japanese War. The Chinese words on the bottom mean, "We will kick the Japanese out of China." The Communist Party lied about the Japanese War in Chinese history books and claimed they defeated the Japanese. Actually, the Nationalists defeated the Japanese courageously. More than ten million Nationalist soldiers died. Mao's army hid in the mountains and became stronger after the Japanese war, which lasted for 8 years. Mao defeated the Nationalists in 1949. The poster is 30 x 21 inches.
