White paper flyer features a cartoon character in a luchadore outfit, mustache and bald spot between two figures sitting on benches. The banner at the top reads "Seguro Médico? Si se puede!" Both of the seated figures are thinking about their health insurance and Mop Man tells them the union is the answer. "Mop Man y Local 399," it says at the bottom, "luchando for tus derechos!"

Two workers worry about their health care insurance costs. Mop Man, the janitor-superhero, explains that the union is fighting for workers’ interests. More images from J4J available in the SEIU-USWW records (Collection 1940), UCLA Library Special Collections.
