In den WarenkorbLarge calendar celebrating Mao's centenary, with each month headed with a black and white image of Mao. Small hole where ribbon hanger once was upper edge, very occasional light spotting, edges little worn and creased, overall in good condition. 53 x 37.5cm. A fascinating glimpse into BHP's oxymoronic relationship with China and… its nominally socialist political culture, this calendar commissioned by the conglomerate multinational's Beijing office boldly extolls Chairman Mao on the centenary of his birth. Each month is accompanied by an image of Mao, varying between well-known and popular images of him, such as his swimming the Yangtze or playing ping-pong in Shanghai, as well as a meticulously careful selection of his interactions with politically palatable party leaders.
