| Description | Cartoon shows a bevy of pretty girls seated on thrones carrying objects labeled "Peace," "Reduction of Armaments," "International Cooperation for Point 4 Program," "Freer World Trade," and "Removing the Curtains." A man with a globe head sits behind a table on which are placed five crowns. The "World's People and Their Leaders," including Uncle Sam, look on. Drawn shortly after the death of Stalin in March 1953 at a time when both the Soviet Union and the United States seemed to be searching for a way to end to Cold War. Probably takes its theme from the popular "Queen for a Day" radio program. |
