This vintage original and rare poster was issued during WWII to promote consumption of dairy products.  There is no indication of what organization issued this poster but it was likely the National Dairy Council.   The poster features a raised hand in patriotic red, white and blue suit sleeve forming the “V for Victory” sign with text that reads “Victory Demands Healthy Americans – Eat More Dairy Foods”.  

This vintage original poster shows light to moderate handling wear and has a single pinhole on each of the upper corners.  A small single piece of tape has been applied to each of the corner tips.  The original colors are retained the poster displays beautifully.  Overall condition is very good.  This is a rare poster as we don’t trace any at auction and don’t locate any copies of this title on WorldCat.
