The Cuban Poster Gallery appreciates your business! Our price for this original woodblock print is $249 Own a piece of Latin American Cold War-era history! We are delighted to offer Vintage Cuban Revolution Print 16, which is part of a portfolio of 40 original woodcut prints that was displayed at a 1961 exhibition at the National Museum of Fine Arts of Havana (Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes de La Habana). The woodcuts in this portfolio were created by Cuba's Consejo Nacional de Cultura (National Culture Council) to illustrate the main points of Fidel Castro's fiery September 2, 1960 "Declaration of Havana" speech that served as a manifesto of the new revolution. In his speech before a huge crowd in Havana's main square, the Cuban leader harshly denounced the United States and praised Cuba's new allies: the Soviet Union and People's Republic of China. Castro left no doubt in his speech that, in spite of earlier denials, he was transforming Cuba into a one-party, communist state, which it remains today. The original woodcut in this listing was designed by Carlos M. Diaz Gamez (born 1926), an award-winning graphic artist and cartoonist whose work was widely exhibited and who once taught art to workers at a night vocational school in Central Havana. This hard-to-find graphic, which measures 14 by 19 inches (35 x 48 cm), echoes Fidel Castro's 1960 speech in which he saluted Cuba’s nationalization of its healthcare system, including all hospitals and clinics. The text under the graphic declares the right of the sick to medical assistance and the right of children to an education. We have titled this graphic Vintage Cuban Revolution Print 16 because we have listed other graphics from this portfolio (assigning each a different number) in our eBay Store. We invite you to search on eBay for the other graphics with the key words Vintage Cuban Revolution Print. Each woodcut contains -- in the lower right border -- a brief, Spanish-language summary of the themes illustrated in the graphic. Copies of this vintage graphic can be found in major collections worldwide, including the Library of Congress's in Washington D.C. Overall condition of Vintage Cuban Revolution Print 16 is good/fair with imperfections, including creases and foxing ("agespots") on the border and a small piece missing from the lower right border. There are also seven pieces of tape on the back of the graphic that do not impact the design on the front in any way. Please see the multiple photos we have posted of this six-decades-old graphic. Buy with 100 percent confidence; graphics purchased on eBay from the Cuban Poster Gallery can be returned for any reason (in the same condition) within 30 days.
