 | Poster of "Albert Einstein"
Here is a poster titled "Albert Einistein". The photo of Eistein is a black and white head shot, the famous picture of him sticking out his tongue and his eyes wide with eyebrows high. At the top of the poster is the name "ALBERT EINSTEIN" in white capital lettering. At the bottom is the quote "He who joyfully marches to the music in rank and file has already earned my contempt.He has been given a large brain by mistake, since for him the spinal cord would suffice. This disgrace to civilisation should be done away with at once. Heroism at command, senseless brutality, deplorable love-of-country stance, how violently I hate all this, how despicable and ignoble war is; I would rather be torn to shreds than be a part of so base an action! It is my conviction that killing under the cloak of war is nothing but an act of murder." All the lettering is white on black poster paper.
