This is a stunning digitally enhanced You Buy ‘Em We’ll Fly ‘Em – Defence Bonds Stamps reproduction print based on the original World War II War Bond poster. The Savings Bond posters of the early 1940s were created to secure widespread ownership of the public debt, and emphasized a unified and participatory role for every American. Whereas early Liberty Loan posters of WWI used strong coercion, negative imagery, and dramatic, sometimes fear-based, wording, the Savings-turned-Defense Bond posters were designed to instill in the people a positive outlook, a sense of patriotism, and confidence. They directly linked the war in trenches with the war-production effort at home. (This is a public domain reproduction print).

Patriotism became the central theme of advertising throughout the war, as large scale campaigns were launched to sell war bonds, recruitment, promote efficiency in factories, reduce ugly rumors, and maintain positive civilian morale. The war consolidated the advertising industry’s role in American society, deflecting earlier criticism. The leaders of the Axis powers were portrayed as cartoon caricatures, in order to make them appear foolish and idiotic. The American government produced posters, films, and radio programs as much as it produced ammunition and weapons of war. In fact, posters, films, books, and animations were weapons to capture the hearts and minds of American citizens. All of this was designed to create a society that supported the war. The United States used posters to advertise, and produced more propaganda posters than any other country fighting in World War II. Almost 200,000 different designs were printed during the war. These posters used a number of themes to encourage support for the war, including conservation, production, recruiting, home efforts and secrecy. Posters were usually placed in areas without paid advertisements. The most common areas were post offices, railroad stations, schools, restaurants and retail stores. Smaller posters were printed for the windows of private homes and apartment buildings. These were places where other propaganda media couldn’t be used.
