A pictorial propaganda leaflet produced by the Far Eastern Liaison Office (FELO) during the Second World War and distributed to Melanesia and the Netherlands East Indies.

There is also a picture of German officers and men surrendering to the Allied Forces. The image on the title page depicts two Japanese girls picking mandarin oranges.
