Title	Solidarity forever; circa 1981-1982
Description	From the AAEC Editorial Cartoon Collection. Cartoon by Eldon Pletcher. A man labeled "Polish workers" is sitting on a wooden box while lettering political signs. Finished signs on the ground around him read, "Farmers rise up...Workers unite...More freedom." The sign he is lettering reads, "Solidarity forever." A Soviet tank with hammer and sickle symbol is also in the cartoon, with Leonid Brezhnev standing in the tank watching the Polish worker. The tank's gun is sticking through the sign being lettered, taking the place of the "o" of Solidarity.
