Original Item. Only One Available. Guns, tanks, and bombs were the principal weapons of World War II, but there were other, more subtle forms of warfare as well. Words, posters, and films waged a constant battle for the hearts and minds of the American citizenry just as surely as military weapons engaged the enemy. Persuading the American public became a wartime industry, almost as important as the manufacturing of bullets and planes. The Government launched an aggressive propaganda campaign with clearly articulated goals and strategies to galvanize public support, and it recruited some of the nation's foremost intellectuals, artists, and filmmakers to wage the war on that front.

This is a very chilling WWII propaganda poster depicting a photo of Japanese soldiers with a blindfolded, captured American soldier, and a newspaper headline describing the execution of captured flyers.

The poster reads:

The Jap way-
COLD-BLOODED MURDER

We’ll make them pay
If you keep up
PRODUCTION

U.S. ARMY OFFICIAL POSTER

The frame is without glass, and the poster itself has some small nicks and fold markings. A really great & colorful poster for any WWII collection.
