A seven colour screen printed poster from the anti-nuclear series parodying the Sydney Royal Easter Show produced while Toni Robertson was artist in residence at the Experimental Art Foundation in Adelaide in 1981. Features a scene from a Royal Show with a child, an older woman, a policeman and woman with a todler in a pram in front of a shooting gallery. A roller coaster car appears at the top. A blackface figure attempts to attract patrons to blaze away with his stand's automatic rifles. Behind him are silhouette images of Aborigines holding spears.
