A Polish Anti-Communist Propaganda poster by Catholic Priest Edward Kosibowicz

A Polish anti-Communist propaganda poster, measuring 309x209mm, near mint condition. The first line states the author, E. Kosibowicz, underneath is a general headline, followed by the text. On the back there is a bilingual stamp (German and Polish).

The author of the poster is Edward Kosibowicz (1895–1944), a Polish Jesuit and Catholic priest. During the 1930s, Kosibowicz was outspokenly anti-communist and even favoured the idea of German or Italian fascism as a means to overcome communism, as the lesser of two evils. During the German occupation of Poland, however, he supported the underground resistance movement. He was killed by SS men during the Warsaw Uprising. The caption under his name reads: Spiritual sources of contemporary atheism. The text loosely translates to Russian Bolshevism being the most powerful and most extreme movement and simultaneously atheist system in history so far. The stamp on the back dates the page to February 27, 1942. It is in German and Polish, which might point to the poster being commissioned as a German propaganda effort.
