Hello :-) <<< extending furry stoat paw for a polite handshake
Nice to meet a fellow collector of WWII posters!! I had no idea that there was another on this forum.
So...the usual questions: How many so far? Do you display them in your home? Whats your greatest find? You know the drill...LOL!
I'm terribly sorry, there has been a misunderstanding and it's all my fault :-(
Because the original posted article here is from the Daily Mail, and it's about an exhibition of these posters, I wanted to add some additional images (because the Daily Mail included so few!) and I wanted to make it clear to readers that the images I was adding were mine and not part of the collection being shown at the museum, or the Daily Mail article. I regret that I am not a collector of the hard-copy originals or reproductions, I'm merely someone who appreciates the art and the message conveyed therein and collects the images from the internet whenever I run across them. I can see how when I said that these were "from my collection" it may indeed sound as though I own the originals....sadly I don't.
I hope that you're not upset with me for expressing myself so poorly, and I sincerely apologize for leaving the wrong impression.
However, I'm hoping that you might be willing to add images from your REAL collection to this thread :-)
No...I'm not upset...I always love threads about WWII posters. I only thought that I'd finally run across one of my Ebay competitors...LOL! You have already posted a few of those in my collection...I will try to find some images of those that I have (mine are framed, so real photos would not come across well).
Plenty here as well.
