PB EMBROIDERY ca. 1955
hr>PB was imported to Vietnam in the early 1950s via the largely-British expatriate community. This magnificent handmade embroidery, which delivers the movement's catchcry in pseudo-Asian calligraphy, hung for many years behind the bar on the Rex Hotel's rooftop, a popular watering hole for the Saigon chapter during the Vietnam War. It was generously donated to the museum by famed bartender Nghia "Buddy" Du at the war's conclusion in 1975.
