This powerful and dramatic poster by the artist Frederick Siebel was issued in 1942 shortly after the United States entered WWII. The stark image features a sailor struggling to keep his head above water pointing directly at the viewer with the simple admonition “Someone Talked”. Simple and effective, the poster reminds that loose lips sink ships.

This lightly used poster is a vintage original issued during WWII in the full one sheet size.  The poster is folded as issued and shows just slight handling wear and modest toning from age to the borders.  The poster has no tape or pinholes, the colors remain bold and overall condition is very good.
