Content: This item is a Japanese-language propaganda leaflet produced by the Far Eastern Liaison Office during the Second World War. It is accompanied by an English translation of the text.

The message states that the Allies are prepared to negotiate a conditional surrender which the Japanese can honourably accept. 10,000 of them were printed.
