Che Hearts New York

Masterfully combining two of the recurring themes of this blog, tshirtbaba's photoshopped image subtly undermines Che's socialist ideals (by suggesting his adoration of the capital of Capitalism) and parodies the clichéd overuse of both Milton Glaser's rebus and Che Guevara's iconic visage.


Che did visit New York of course, as he headed up the Cuban delegation to the United Nations in 1964, though since the advertising campaign started in 1977 - ten years after Che's death in Bolivia in 1967 - the only place those two will meet is in this poster, available now from MySoti.
