People, whether
they lived through the war years or not,
can remember many of the British poster
slogans from the Second World War, including:
|
|
CARELESS
TALK COSTS LIVES
COUGHS
AND SNEEZES SPREAD DISEASES
DIG
FOR VICTORY
KEEP
MUM, SHE'S NOT SO DUMB
LEND
A HAND ON THE LAND
LOOK
OUT IN THE BLACKOUT
|
What is it that makes
these poster images and slogans so enduring,
not only for those for who would have
seen them during the war years, but also
the youngest generations?
