Item type: Poster
Date: 1980 = 1989

Description: Spoof film poster for “Gone With The Wind” starring Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher. Made for Friends of the Earth in the 1980s. The stars of the 1939 film are replaced in this photo-montage poster by US President Reagan and Prime Minister Thatcher. The title refers to the feared effects of nuclear war. The image of Thatcher in Reagan’s arms gives an impression of British politicians being subservient to the US.

Fantastic poster. Is it possible to buy a copy? I’ve searched online but have not been able to track it down.
