MIR 00004

Cultural Revolution Round Mirror

This is quite an unusual mirror in the fact it is made from plastic rather than steel. It is small enough to be used as a traveling mirror or kept in an office desk. The reverse side has a very colorful quote from Chairman Mao.

The plastic frame is heavy gage and has withstood the past 40 years quite well. As can be seen, the glass is cracked on one side.

The printing information shows this was made in Shanghai.

The mirror is 10 cm (4 inches) in diameter.
