I wish I had discovered this one for my book ‘Ronald Searle’s America’! It’s in the JFK Presidential Library. Looks like a HOLIDAY magazine commission.
‘A man on a donkey gazes at a tall, ornate building, "American Embassy", topped with many television and radio antennae and surrounded by a crowded parking lot. A village of grass shacks on stilts can be seen behind the building. To the left rear is a large sign, "Bar" over one shack; to the right rear is a larger sign, "New Frontier Steak House" over another shack. A helicopter is in the sky above.’
