Printed after the Six Day War, this image shows a man who is most likely Moshe Dayan (former Minister of Defence of Israel) in a safari suit smoking a cigar and holding a gun. In his pocket are green bond certificates. He is wearing a medal with "Iron Beygel" printed in black and is using two Arab men in gray robes and keffiyeh as skis.
