This vintage original WWII poster was issued by the War Production Board in 1943. The image of rows of white crosses in a cemetery festooned with the clothing and tools of factory workers, a railroad worker and a construction worker add gravity to the poster’s message:
More American workers were killed and wounded in industrial accidents last year than all the casualties from bombs in Britain in two years of war – FOLLOW SAFETY RULES!
This vintage original lightly used WWII poster is fully complete and well intact. The poster shows modest handling wear, slight toning from age and a pinhole on each corner. The poster has a small tack hole size puncture near the upper right-hand corner and overall condition is very good.
