After seeing about a million Facebook posts of people wearing their cardboard eclipse viewers; I was reminded of an image that I can’t seem to locate, and thought I’d reach out for some help.

The image is of 3-5 people standing next to each other side by side and looking up to their right; and they all have glasses on (or cardboard 3D specs?) The image reminds me of those old [Russian propaganda posters](http://c8.alamy.com/comp/FKCGAX/1950s-russia-russian-propaganda-poster-FKCGAX.jpg) where they show a stern looking man looking away. See the link for what I’m talking about, add two or three more people looking up like the man in the poster is, add some funky sunglasses.

My first google search was covers from It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia; but all I find there is the cast with sunburned faces except where they were wearing glasses. I also searched "communist propaganda poster and Nazi propaganda poster but didn’t what my memory tells me was the correct image.

Any ideas?  
Thanks.

I wonder if I’m chaneling my inner 80s memories. It also reminds of the old DEVO band poster: [http://nightflight.com/wp-content/uploads/THEMENWHOMAKETHEMUSICDEVO7.jpg](http://nightflight.com/wp-content/uploads/THEMENWHOMAKETHEMUSICDEVO7.jpg)

I think I know which one you are talking about but I can’t find it either. I believe it was a “Life” magazine photo. I first thought they were watching a nuclear bomb, but I think it was a 3-D movie.

As you’ve already guessed that you may have been mixing it up with Devo, then there’s [this LIFE magazine cover](https://i.pinimg.com/originals/fd/c3/40/fdc340a3fb2254fa0bd55be3d3f5a5ce.jpg) that **mixdenny** mentions, I think it’s covered.

Yeah I may be mixing pictures up in my head. My memory is basically if you took only 3 - 5 people from the Life magazine picture, facing the same direction and everything; and made it a drawing along the lines of the propaganda posters (I remember seeing a lot of orange and red for some reason).
