Cover of Simplicissimus on the March on Rome in Italy

On November 22, 1922, about a month after the March on Rome and the coming to power of the Fascists in Italy under Mussolini, the thirty-fourth issue of Simplicissimus appeared in Munich with a caricature by co-founder Thomas Theodor Heine as the cover. On it the two infants Romulus and Remus, wearing the black shirts of the Fascists, puff the she-wolf over their teats to excess. The caption reads Fascists, and at the bottom it reads, blow in vigorously only - no - no, / Italia must be bigger
