Abstract:
Multicolor poster with black lettering. All text in Japanese (?) characters. Visual image is a color illustration of a woman smoking a long pipe. Her gown is open, revealing her chest and stomach. These are covered with fanciful illustrations of bodily processes; people work at little machines, till and harvest in fields, and appear to speak and pray. The woman may be pregnant, as there is a shadow in what appears to be her uterus.
