Contents: The portfolio was intended to include 14 lithographs by 8 members of the Taller de Gráfica Popular, including Méndez. It is unknown which prints by Méndez were included (or intended to be included). Scholar Michael T. Ricker speculates that the two-image sheet containing Libertad .... para asesinar al pueblo? by Méndez and El ejército de la Revolución desprecia a los “periodistas” amigos de Victoriano Huerta by Alfredo Zalce may have been intended for this portfolio.  Ricker 2015, 263.
