Repatriation For Irish POW
The words “repatriation for Irish POW” were later added to this mural in Ballycolman, Strabane. But the prisoner in question, perhaps shown in the centre of the flag and in close-up in the second image, is unknown.

Censored
Three of four parts of a long mural about censorship. In the first, a pair of “Censor Ltd” scissors cut the cord to the microphone of a speaker who is also gagged – the idea comes from a Jack Clafferty drawing, included below. The second gives figures making the case for the under-representation of Sinn Féin in government: 1 MP, 40[%] nationalist elec[torate?], 56 [city/district] council[lors]. Just out of view to the right of “Censored” is “Britain ignores the voice of arguement.”
For the image on which the first panel is based, see Many Have Eyes. The imagery of scissors cutting a microphone cord is by Jack Clafferty.
