Most of these are from World War II Poster Collection from Northwestern University Library

Hmm -- several of those would make great posters for counter-Freeping the next anti-war demonstration.

Dan Day,

Great job! Very cool posters that are timeless, especially appropriate in today's dangerous world.

Sometimes old stereotypes can be pretty funny.

Thanks for posting this - I did a search for these type of posters some time ago for use on a thread as well. Your search turned up better results!

I have a set of posters from the First World War. My father had joined the French Ambulance Corps because he was too impatient to wait for the U.S. to join in.

Those posters would also fit our current situation. Patriotism, freedom and the right to defend yourself against aggression don't go out of date.

I couldn't find any of the posters I have on-line, but here's one that certainly fits the present situation. In fact it's really weird how well it fits what happened on 9/11 and afterwards:

I'd copy it here, but they've cleverly rigged it to prevent copying.

Fascinating, Dan! Thanks so much for collating such a great selection.

Just by the way, the US embassy here has organised a display of original WWII patriotic posters, at the Maritime Museum here in Sydney. Also included are Garands and Colts used in the Pacific war, the story of the Sullivan brothers and the like. Very moving and thought-provoking.

Thanks and a bunp. I hope you don't mind I've copied a number of image locations and will probably use in coming posts.

God Bless America, our patriotic leaders and the men and women of our armed forces.

Just replace the swastika with an Islamic crescent.
