Maxistan Goes Photographic

-- Staff Reporter

Breaking with tradition, Maxistan has begun issuing passports and identity cards with photographs of the bearing. In departing from its former procedure of providing a detailed description of the holder, Maxistan has joined the majority of the world's governments by embracing images as a means of representing persons. Sources have not been able to determine if all new applicants will be required to use the new 'image' style passports and identification cards. Holders of the descriptive passports will not be required to surrender them at this time.
