Casa de las Américas (cover designer: Umberto Peña, director: Roberto Fernández Retamar, chief editor: Adolfo Cruz-Luis), "Casa de las Américas, Número 105, Noviembre-Diciembre 1977," November-December 1977. Offset print, magazine.

This commemorative issue of Casa de las Américas (Number 105, November-December 1977) celebrates the 60th anniversary of the October Revolution with a special focus on "Sobre la Revolución de Octubre y Nuestra América" (On the October Revolution and Our America). The striking cover, designed by Umberto Peña, features a bold red circular portrait of Lenin rendered in high-contrast screen printing against a vibrant yellow background, creating a powerful Pop Art-influenced tribute to the Soviet revolutionary leader. Published under the direction of Roberto Fernández Retamar with Adolfo Cruz-Luis as chief editor, this issue explores the connections between the Russian Revolution and Latin American liberation movements, featuring articles by prominent intellectuals including Volodia Teitelboim on "La América Latina y los sesenta años de Octubre" and contributions on Cuba's revolutionary experience. The magazine includes extensive coverage of the October Revolution's impact across the Americas, with sections on literature, cultural resistance, and political analysis. This issue represents Casa de las Américas' role as a platform for Third World solidarity and revolutionary internationalism, demonstrating how Cuban intellectuals situated their own revolutionary experience within the broader context of global socialist movements and anti-imperialist struggle during the height of the Cold War.
