Poster Wars During Second World War (1939-1945)
Designed By :- Shahrukh Siddiqui
(6th Sem – B.A MCJ )
The government encouraged people to plant vegetable
gardens to help prevent food shortages. Magazines such
as Saturday Evening Post and Life printed articles
supporting it, while women's magazines included
directions for planting.
Because planting these gardens was regarded as being
patriotic, they were termed victory gardens, and women
were encouraged to can and preserve food they raised
from these gardens.
During the war, the sale of War Bonds was extensively
promoted. Originally termed "Defense Bonds", they were called "War
Bonds" after the attack on Pearl Harbor. Much of the nation's artistic
talent and best advertising techniques were used to encourage people
to buy the bonds so as to keep the program voluntary.The War
Advertising Board did its best to convince people that buying bonds
was a patriotic act, giving buyers a stake in the war.
“I Want You for U.S. Army” was actually commissioned for
World War Second.
Based on an equally iconic British recruiting poster, this
indelible image was so effective that it was also extensively
used in the Second World War.
The appeal to honor and duty, not to mention the slightly
sinister undertone, was enough to convince countless men to
willingly sign up for a tour in Hell. If that isn’t an effective
piece of propaganda.
In October 1939 the Government launched 'The Dig for Victory'
campaign. People were urged to use gardens and every spare
piece of land, such as parks, golf clubs and tennis courts, to
grow vegetables.
Dig for Victory was a response to a wartime problem of food
shortages.
Before the Second World War Britain imported approximately
55 million tonnes, or 3/4 of the country's food by ship each
year. When the Second World War started in September 1939
shipping was attacked by enemy submarines and warships. This
resulted in food shortages.
Hitler was the leader of the German army. Naturally, the
enemy wouldn't have sent a warning that they were going to
drop bombs of gas, so people always had to be prepared. Gas
masks were issued to every citizen. Fortunately, their use was
never required.
Women ‘s land Army campaign was Started in March,1941.
In the country at war and all able-bodied men needed to
fight, there was a shortage of labour to work on farms and
in other jobs on the land. The government wanted to
increase the amount of food grown within Britain. In order
to grow more food, more help was needed on the farms and
so the government started the Women's Land Army.
At first, only single women aged 20-30 were called up, but
by mid-1943, almost 90 per cent of single women and 80
per cent of married women were working in factories, on
the land or in the armed forces.
As the prospect of war became increasingly likely, the
government wanted to increase the amount of food grown
within Britain. In order to grow more food, more help was
needed on the farms and so the government started the
Women's Land Army.
Thank You
