“Long Live May Day, International Workers’ Solidarity Day!” Poster released by the Israel Communist Party (Mamk”i) in honor of the Workers’ Holiday. It depicts two workers, a builder and a farmer, waving their hands at the first-ever man-made satellite, Sputnik, that the USSR launched into space just a year and a half previously. The satellite is painted with the hammer and sickle.
Caption at the bottom: “To the unity of laborers in the struggle for the protection of peace, bread and labor. For democracy and social progress! Long live peace, long live socialism! May 1, 1959 The Israeli Communist Party.”
