Home front Posters- Susannah Walker Shire Library

This book tells the story behind posters such as Coughs and Sneezes Spread Diseases and Keep Calm and Carry On: how they were designed and produced, what it was hoped they would achieve, and what the British public really thought of them, as well as the role of Britains secret weapon- humour. Looking at famous images and forgotten gems, it is essential reading for anyone interested both in life on the Home Front and the design of the times.
