Political Cartoons

I drew cartoons about the “Iron Curtain”, Origins of the Cold War, The Berlin Wall, The Domino Theory, and Harry S. Truman’s “Containment”.

West Berlin partially belonged to America, France and the United Kingdom and East Berlin belonged to the U.S.S.R.  Screen Shot 2013-10-16 at 2.00.20 PMThis is representing the rivalry between the U.S and the U.S.S.R. It was consist fight about who could bring out the first bomb or who could put the first man on the moon.
