POLITICAL POSTER. André GALLAND (1886-1965).... - Lot 296 - Marie-Saint Germain

POLITICAL POSTER. André GALLAND (1886-1965). The Radical Socialists and the Socialists are supporters of the Wheat Office... But the Office du Blé is the inspector and the taxman on your farms! Farmers, do you want to see this? Open your barn and I'll check your harvest declaration and count your bags! 61 x 79.5 cm. Against the Front Populaire, for the legislative elections by the Centre de propagande des Républicains nationaux. "The Front Populaire program included the creation of a Wheat Office. This measure, adopted in August 1936, regulated wheat prices and controlled imports and exports. During the election campaign, the National Republicans exploited farmers' fears of a "fiscal inquisition". The intervention of the administrators of the future board is described as an intrusion by the state into the secrecy of private business."
