Rip Off ROTC
c. 1960–1970

A graphic poster with bold, black stencil-like text reading "RIP OFF" at the top and "ROTC" at the bottom. In the center, there is a stylized image of a skull wearing a military beret, suggesting a critical or protest message against the Reserve Officers' Training Corps (ROTC). The background is a weathered beige color, and the overall style is reminiscent of street art or political propaganda.
