Description
Posters utilized to inform civilians of their wartime duties, such as production labor, women joining the workforce, buying bonds, and supporting the government are on display. Government agencies and private organizations in countries around the world created and distributed propaganda posters. The rise in popularity of the poster medium is credited to their inexpensive manufacturing costs and accessibility, for they were posted in numerous locations, from the workroom floor to street corners and store windows. The exhibit is free.More Info
