The graphic features a large yellow hand reaching down, seemingly from out of nowhere. It is clenched tightly in a fist, and tiny women and coins are falling from it. Text Reads: Don’t get hooked! The drug pusher will SQUEEZE you for every dime you can BEG BORROW OR STEAL. – The Citizens Crime Cleanup Committee – October 15, 1929.’ The image is copyrighted Key Publishing Co.
