Description

This vertical propaganda poster features a central illustration of two red, muscular hands joined in a firm handshake at the center. The hands are positioned within a large, stylized letter "V" composed of black and red diagonal bands. Behind the "V" and the hands, a large, dark hammer is positioned vertically, with its head at the top and its handle extending downward. The background is divided into vertical sections of green on the left, white in the center, and red on the right, mirroring the colors of the Mexican flag. At the bottom of the poster, the Spanish text "CONSEJO OBRERO NACIONAL" is printed in large, bold, black block letters. A small vertical color calibration strip is visible along the right edge of the poster's border.
