This poster portrays a Japanese military leader, probably General Tojo, speaking into a radio microphone. The text is in Marathi, a North Indian language. The poster is interesting because it implies that this Japanese speaker’s words cannot be trusted. The British probably produced this poster when they were facing a critical moment in India with the Japanese army almost at their doorstep.
