This 1939 cartoon by American cartoonist Herb Block depicts Poland as a vulnerable little girl confronted by a wolf (representing Nazi Germany) and a bear (representing Soviet Russia). The wolf has a Hitler hairstyle and the words "Nazi Germany" on its pillow, while the bear resembles Stalin and has "Soviet Russia" on its pillow. They have gotten into bed together, symbolizing the alliance formed between Nazi Germany and Soviet Russia to conquer and divide Poland following the Nazi-Soviet Pact. The cartoon was meant to express American disgust with the pact.
