A very well known poster. And that's definitely their signature (I think you and I had a conversation a while back about the changes in their signature over the years). Well, the Hebrew is a little more interesting than his boring translation, but I'm not sure I can do any better. It reads (perhaps a bit too literally): How beautiful/great — that/because free people are we. Up above, you know, it says 1 May 1953. This is a May Day poster for the Histadrut.
