Printed poster on paper

[Belgrade, Serbia]

N.p.

[1941]

Approx. 15 3/4 x 21 1/2 in. 

An antisemitic propaganda poster averring that the American press is run by a Jewish cabal. The poster depicts Edwin Leland James (1890-1951), the managing editor of the New York Times,  bursting out of his paper's front page. 

The design was displayed in the "Grand Anti-Masonic Exhibition" that ran from 22 October 1941 until 19 January 1942 in Belgrade, in Nazi-occupied Serbia. The exhibition was financed by the Germans with the support of collaborationist leader Milan Nedić and organized by former members of the fascist Yugoslav National Movement (Zbor). 

The title of the exhibition sought to expose alleged Judeo-Masonic and Communist conspiracies for world domination. Artworks were virulently antisemitic,  dehumanizing Jews and seeking to justify their extermination. Included as part of the exhibition, over 60,000 copies of 20 different posters were also distributed to Serbians.
