EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking poster from 1957 calls for the arrest of George Theodorou Grivas and the surrender of weapons in connection to the Cyprus crisis. The red crosses and the mugshot of Grivas at the center of the poster convey a sense of urgency and importance. The Cyprus crisis, which began in 1955, was a conflict between the Greek Cypriot nationalist movement and the British colonial authorities. Grivas, a prominent figure in the Greek Cypriot resistance, was a key figure in the insurgency. The poster offers a reward for information leading to Grivas' arrest and for the surrender of arms, including Bren guns, Sten guns, rifles, and pistols. The use of mugshots and weapons on the poster was a common tactic used by authorities during this time to encourage the public to come forward with information. The poster's bold design and use of red crosses, a symbol of medical aid and neutrality, adds to its impact. The date, 1957, is prominently displayed at the bottom of the poster, reminding us of the historical significance of this moment in Cyprus' tumultuous past.
