In the lower section, a very busy scene shows crowds marching forward following Mao's direction and carrying posters with slogans, musical instruments, banners, Mao's framed portrait and the Little Red Book. Text on the red flag which streams along the foot of the image says "Red Guards" and "Rebel Factions". An upright banner in middle section showing the rebel faction belongs to "Jilin Province Revolution Committee""--Asia Bookroom's website
