At the top of the poster is a portrait of Mao Zedong wearing a military-style cap with a red star and a green uniform, set against a warm, sun-like yellow background. Below Mao is a group of people representing the unified social classes of China. At the center is a worker with a headlamp on his forehead who holds a copy of the "Selected Works of Mao Zedong" high in the air. Behind the worker is a soldier holding binoculars and a copy of Mao's works. To the right, a smiling peasant woman raises a red book. Attached to a bundle of harvested grain beside her is a sign written in Chinese: "毛主席语录 农业学大寨 全国学人民解放军" (Quotations from Chairman Mao; In agriculture, learn from Dazhai; The whole country learns from the People's Liberation Army). On the left, another worker holds a tool. A large red flag with the hammer-and-sickle emblem billows behind them. Below the factories, a crowd of people is marching and carrying banners with Chinese slogans that read, "伟大的领袖毛主席万岁!" (Long live the great leader Chairman Mao!) and "工业学大庆" (In industry, learn from Daqing).
