Tiny closed tear to left-hand edge not approaching text, extremities a bit toned, else Very Good and sound. Informational flyer regarding the 1961 NMU strike after the ship owners refused to negotiate the union's contracts before they expired: "The shipowners group has chosen to tie up their American flag ships rather than negotiate with the seamen's unions on the huge fleets some companies own under foreign flags of convenience. We call them 'runaways.'" Among such runaway operators mentioned are Greek shipping magnate Aristotle Onassis. Date based on the mention of President Kennedy, as well as contemporary news accounts of the strike. This flyer not separately catalogued in OCLC as of December, 2018.
