It was actually Harry Payne on rec.arts.sf.fandom who pointed it out, with the thrust of the discussion being what SF book cover it was reminiscent of.
It reminds me very much of the thread on soc.history.what-if that was discussing the ways a Fascist Britain could have been implemented in the 1930s in a very British way without ever having the F word pass anyone's lips.
And come to think of it, I could just see the poster as something stuck to some background scenery in the Richard III film.
