Original Vintage WWII Poster Half the Metal in Every Ship Tank Gun Scrap c1943 – The Ross Art Group

By A Mystery Man Writer

In this poster printed by the United States Government, we see the warships, tank, and artillery that scrap metal contributions help to make. This poster was commissioned by the United States War Production Board in the Bureau of Industrial Conservation. The poster encourages citizens to save scrap metal in order to make tanks, guns and ammunition. American WWII propaganda posters strongly and consistently encouraged citizens to reuse and recycle. It was all part of an effort to involve everyone on the home front in the war effort. This was their opportunity to pitch in and help the national cause at a local level. During both of the World Wars, the idea that an individual could make a difference with their efforts was nurtured and developed. During World War II posters played an important role in developing a sense of motivation and patriotism. This is an Original Vintage Poster; it is not a reproduction.
