Abstract

A cartoon with Nikita Khrushchev singing while holding a rolled up paper labelled "Kennedy Agrees to Summit Meeting in Vienna." There are thought bubbles above his head of times "The West" had fallen in past summits at Paris and Geneva. While he sings, a man in the background applies "Double Cross Floor Wax."

Alt Text

A cartoon illustration of Nikita Khrushchev whistling to himself as he walks across a floor that a second man has applied "Double Cross floor wax" to. A newspaper in his hand reads "Kennedy agrees to summit meeting in Vienna" and thought bubbles above his head show a man in a suit labeled "the West" slipping on the floor in Paris and Geneva.
