This vintage original poster was created by the artist Henry Koerner and issued in 1943 to promote the recovery of household waste fats on the American homefront during WWII. Waste fats were a vital commodity needed for the production of munitions in support the war effort. Koerner’s Modern Style design features bombs and artillery shells exploding upward from the fat being poured out of a frying pan with text that reads:
Save Waste Fats For Explosives – Take Them To Your Meat Dealer
This poster is folded as issued and shows light handling wear, some toning from age and a few pinholes on the corners. The poster is free of tape and retains the original color very well. Overall condition is very good for this WWII era vintage original.
