My PhD proposal was accepted in January 1998, under the title of "The planning, design and reception of British Home Front propaganda posters of the Second World War". This is building upon my undergraduate project on the same topic.

I have visited many archives in the process of this project, and a lot of work has been put into a database, and you can find information on digitisation.

In the early months of 1998, a questionnaire was circulated to those who remembered something about the posters from the war, and if you fall into this category please contact me with any memories, if you don't, please enjoy some of the quotes!

On 25th June 2004, "Rebecca Lewis successfully negotiated her PhD viva for her thesis entitled ‘The planning, design and reception of British home front propaganda posters of the Second World War’. The thesis was described by the examiners, Lord Asa Briggs and Dr Adrian Smith, as excellent, with no corrections. The supervisory team was Dr Martin Polley (Southampton University, formerly of University College Winchester) and Professor Joyce Goodman."
