60s22. Lobby of Parliament postcard

The AAM had high hopes of the Labour government elected in 1964, but was soon became disillusioned by its failure to impose a total arms embargo against South Africa. On 8 March 1965 it organised a lobby of Parliament. It printed 30,000 of these postcards with a picture of the Sharpeville massacre for supporters to send to the Prime Minister.
