EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph from 1944, titled "WWII: POSTER, 1944. Don't be a sucker! Keep your mouth shut" is an intriguing piece of American propaganda art that encapsulates the spirit of espionage during World War II. The image features a fish with its mouth wide open, revealing a menacing hook inside. This clever metaphor serves as a reminder to the viewer to remain vigilant and not divulge any sensitive information that could potentially aid the enemy. The bold text accompanying the illustration reinforces this message, urging individuals to keep their mouths shut in order to protect national security. Created during a time when secrecy was paramount for military operations and intelligence gathering, this poster aimed to instill a sense of responsibility and caution among citizens. The skillful use of lithography brings out striking details in both the fish's mid-bite expression and the intricate design elements surrounding it. The artist's choice of colors adds depth and intensity to the overall composition, making it visually compelling. As part of Granger Art on Demand collection by Granger NYC / The Granger Collection, this print offers viewers an opportunity to reflect on an important chapter in history while appreciating the artistic techniques employed at that time. It serves as a powerful reminder of how visual imagery played an essential role in shaping public opinion and mobilizing support for war efforts during WWII.
