Summary

Description
English: One of a number of posters created by the Economic Cooperation Administration, an agency of the U.S. government, to sell the Marshall Plan in Europe. Includes versions of the flags of those Western European countries that received aid under the Marshall Plan (clockwise from top: Portugal, Norway, Belgium, Iceland, West Germany, the Free Territory of Trieste (with a blue background instead of red, as blue is the official the color of the United Nations), Italy, Denmark, Austria, the Netherlands, Ireland, Sweden, Turkey, Greece, France and the United Kingdom). Poster does not explicitly depict Luxembourg (whose flag is very similar to the Dutch flag), which did receive some aid.
