"The poster - inexpensive, colorful, and immediate - was an ideal medium for delivering messages about Americans' duties on the home front during World War II." "Design for Victory presents more than 150 of these stunning images - many never reproduced since their first issue - culled from the collections of the National Museum of American History, Smithsonian Institution." "William L. Bird, Jr. and Harry R. Rubenstein delve beneath the surface of these colorful graphics, telling the stories behind their production and revealing how posters fulfilled the goals and needs of their creators. The authors describe the history of how specific posters were conceived and received, focusing on the workings of the wartime advertising profession and demonstrating how posters often reflected uneasy relations between labor and management."--Jacket.

Relevant and quotable: "In pitting the strategy of truth against the strategy of terror, we cannot stop to educate--we must win the war. We must state the truth in terms that will be understood by all levels of intelligence. Further, we must dramatize the truth." (p.31)
