Description

Poster depicts a color cartoon of a fox and hedgehog facing each other across a table with two sailboats in between. The text describes the fox and the hedgehog meeting on a hill. The fox tells the hedgehog to stop and observe the peace made by the king by removing his spiky skin. The hedgehog tells the fox to first break his teeth. Then the hedgehog makes himself round, closes his spikes, and defies the rest of the armed world as a peace hero. Story by Wilhelm Busch.
