i am not sure if the link “Am alten Schlachthof” is right – that one is not in offenbach!
cheers
Oops, you are right. That would have been my mistake – I added some extra links to Jürgen’s piece. Corrected.
Am I the only one who thinks this is a stunning poster? The German eagle as a Chinese kite. Wonderful!
This is amazing and the poster is a brilliant use of symbolism merging two cultures. Michele
