EDITORS COMMENTS
is a powerful and evocative wartime salvage poster from the 1940s, created to encourage individuals to collect and save their used paper for recycling during World War II. The poster features a bold red header with an arrow pointing towards the text, emphasizing the urgency of the message. The background is a simple yet effective design of overlapping rectangles in various shades of brown, representing the piles of waste paper that needed to be salvaged. The central image is a determined-looking figure of a man in a workman's uniform, holding up a stack of papers with a serious expression. The caption below the image reads, "Save it for the collector when he calls." The use of the word "collector" adds a sense of community and organization to the campaign, as if everyone had a role to play in the war effort. The poster is a poignant reminder of the importance of recycling during wartime, when resources were scarce and every piece of paper counted. The 1940s saw a significant increase in the use of propaganda posters to mobilize the public and promote various war efforts, including salvage campaigns like this one. The poster's simple yet effective design and clear message make it a valuable historical artifact and an excellent representation of the spirit of cooperation and resourcefulness that defined the war years. This particular print is available from Mary Evans Picture Library/Onslow Auctions Limited through Mary Evans Prints Online, offering collectors and historians an opportunity to add a piece of history to their collection. The poster is not only a visual representation of the past but also a reminder of the importance of recycling and the role that individual actions can play in larger societal efforts.
