Description

This 1942 poster, produced by the U.S. War Production Board, uses bold imagery to emphasize the importance of increased wartime production. It features a massive, rolling snowball labeled "More Production" barreling down on caricatures of Axis leaders—Adolf Hitler, Emperor Hirohito, and Benito Mussolini—who are panicked as they attempt to flee. The poster suggests that increased American production will overwhelm the Axis powers, symbolized here as helpless under the unstoppable momentum of Allied industrial strength. This powerful image served as a motivational tool on the American home front, encouraging workers to boost output in support of the war effort.

Condition Description
Linen backed, and minor foxing along outer margin.
