EDITORS COMMENTS
This WW2 poster, titled "Industrial Propaganda," dates back to the 1940s and was designed by the talented Victor Hicks. The image presents an evocative metaphor of industrial production during wartime, with a man playing a double bass in the foreground, his body partially obscured by the large gears and cogs of a factory in the background. The musical instrument, a symbol of harmony and unity, is replaced by the industrial machinery, emphasizing the importance of maintaining a high level of production and productivity during the tumultuous period of the Second World War. The poster's design is both striking and thought-provoking, as the workman's overalls and Pendock hat are adorned with the insignia of various industries, including textiles, steel, and automotive. The man's determined expression and the intense focus of the factory workers in the background convey the sense of unity and purpose required to keep production at a concert pitch during the war effort. This powerful image served as a rallying cry for the American workforce during the 1940s, reminding them of their vital role in the war effort and the importance of their contributions to the manufacturing industry. The poster's impact is further enhanced by its bold typography and vibrant colors, which add to its overall sense of urgency and energy. Victor Hicks' "Industrial Propaganda" is a testament to the ingenuity and creativity of graphic design during the WW2 era, and a reminder of the pivotal role that industry played in the war effort. This iconic poster continues to resonate with audiences today, offering a unique glimpse into the history and spirit of the 1940s.
