PROPAGANDA OF WWII
“The function of the war poster is to make coherent and acceptable a basically incoherent and irrational ordeal of killing, suffering, and destruction that violate every accepted principle of morality and decent living.” --O.W. Riegal, propaganda analyst for the Offi ce of War
InformationOne government-commissioned study concluded that
the best posters were those that made a direct , emotional appeal and presented realistic pictures in photographic detail. The study found that symbolic or humorous posters attracted less attention, made a less favorable impression, and did not inspire enthusiasm. Offi ce of Facts and Figures, 1942
