Karl Kae Knecht Cartoon

Description: A poster labeled Latest List Prisoners in Korea Exchanged hangs in a storefront window; the names and addresses of the men are listed. Several people are nearby; they have different reactions to the list--some have clearly gotten bad news, others good news. A family in front of the window celebrates their good news: a girl and an older woman hug and kiss one another, a boy jumps for joy, and a man takes a woman by the arm and points one of the names out to her. In the foreground, a man and a woman walk away from the window. The man has one arm around the womans shoulder and supports her with the other. The woman holds both hands up to her face; she is using a handkerchief to wipe her eye. To the side, two women read a newspaper.
