Distributed by the Daily News, the image depicts a riot policeman filming demonstrators during the massive protests marking exactly one year since the Warsaw Pact invasion. A rare and significant piece of Cold War history, this 1969 artifact documents the final wave of major public resistance before decades of strict censorship took hold.
