Iraqi War-Era Matchbox Covers – Saddam Hussein and Sons Reward Propaganda – Sold Individually
This is an individual Iraqi war-era propaganda matchbox cover distributed during the early 2000s, likely around the Iraq War (2003). These matchboxes were part of the U.S. psychological operations (PSYOP) campaign encouraging Iraqi citizens to provide information about Saddam Hussein and his sons, Uday and Qusay, offering monetary rewards. The imagery includes portraits of Saddam Hussein and his sons, with crossed-out marks over Uday and Qusay, symbolizing their demise in 2003.
The reverse side contains text in Arabic, promoting the “Rewards for Justice” program by the U.S. Department of State. These matchbox covers are a unique artifact from the Iraq War, highlighting the intense information warfare and propaganda efforts employed during the conflict.
Each matchbox cover is sold individually, and the image provided displays the available quantity. Please review the photographs carefully to choose your preferred piece of history from this tumultuous era.
