Description

Poster held by Louise M. Darling Biomedical Library. History & Special Collections, Collection no. 306, item AU022.
Tricolored exhibition poster in white, black and blue. Four shadowy, ghost-like figures, suggestive of the spirits of deceased AIDS victims, float against a white background; across them lies a blue band with the location of the exhibit inscribed on it in white and black letters. The hours and dates appear below the figures, the list of sponsors in the lower right hand corner. The title, also in white and black lettering, appears in a blue border at the top of the poster.
