Rat in the Maze
The Rat Race
Work Harder, Earn More Money, Buy More Things, Keep Going!!!
Leaflet front
Leaflet back
People in rat costumes hurried hither and thither between the edges of the rat race maze, built out of placards reading Work Harder, Earn More Money, Buy More Things, Keep Going, while Fat Cats advised that happiness was just around the corner if the rats would only keep shopping!
At Castle Mall the rats were flummoxed by security guards who forced them to move on; after all, the rats were only telling people to buy more stuff!
A thousand leaflets were handed out (see below), and many passers-by expressed their support.
