There is a museum in Shanghai that devotes itself to curating propaganda posters in Mao's China. There is a great website for the museum that has thousands of images, making it possible to look at different styles and content of the posters (related to Prof Stapleton's comment about Soviet style influence and the differences during the Cultural Revolution. There is an NPR podcast, interviewing the curator of this museum that is also helpful.
