In 1976, the plate painters at Royal Copenhagen went on strike again over disagreement over the salary, which they wanted up to DKK 31.50 per hour.
During the strike, the painters volunteered to sit and paint cardboard plates with affixed text on the back "Get a work of art for a" tier "(tenner). This supports our fight for the low-wage problem at the Royal Copenhagen Porcelain Factory".

It is in good condition, without sun-bleaching.
