Wilhelm Pieck
This poster has red text on a black background and supports Wilhelm Pieck, the first and only president of the GDR. The text concludes saying that Pieck was "a model for us." The text mentions Hanns Eisler, a famous East German composer. It may be that these words come from something Eisler, who died in 1962, wrote or directed honoring Pieck. -
