| Kibon Ice Cream Tins |
1972 "Manchete - Rio De Janeiro" magazine. On the cover is the "National Congress of Brazil" designed by the architect Oscar Niemeyer. Part of his design for the controversial new capital "Brasilia" of Brazil. The building of this city supposedly bankrupted the country & led to decades of civil unrest & the rise of dictatorships. Pictures inside of Presidente Medici are interesting as he was a repressive ruler where the rich grew richer & the everyone else lost 50% percent of their purchasing power compared to the previous decade. His regime of six years was also marked by torture & censorship. Unfortunately, I can't read Portuguese because I wonder if this magazine is a piece of propaganda?
