Giant letters spell Mussolini's name above massed troops

Before a dark belt of trees, a row of tall white panels bears letters that spell the name Mussolini; below them mounted troops with crossbelts sit their horses in a dense mass, and in front stand ranks of infantry in steel helmets, an officer in a peaked cap among them. The letters were a common feature of Fascist rallies, where the name of the Duce was set up in giant script for the troops and the cameras.
