This is a lot of nine vintage original small format mine safety posters issued by the National Safety Council in the late 1920s. These posters all feature different aspects of safety in mines and all are small format printed one side only measuring about 12” x 9”. The National Safety Council logo appears at the bottom and eight of the nine posters are printed “Mining Section” at the bottom. Two of the posters feature stylized artwork by artists Reid Winser (Safety Starts Up Here) and Art. Johnson (Missed Shots) and the others feature photographic images.
These vintage original mini posters are unused and free of tape or pinholes. The posters show light handling wear including slightly bumped edges and small creases on a few of the corner tips. One of these posters is a bit dust stained in the margin along top edge. Overall condition is very good.
