Module 6: Pictorial Moderism

These are just a collection of posters. I had wanted to see the wide variety of War posters. As you can see they convey easily the messages. Quickly, usually with something that people can relate to. Some even humorously. Some of these you can see the heroic and other styles that we have been learning about.
Note none of the hard to understand style were made into posters for the everyday person to become inspired by or to pass on important information. The propaganda value is obvious and is still in use today. I did not have a problem with the right use of propaganda and that is telling the truth.

This section of my blog is so much more inspiring. It makes we want to become part of the solution of a better world. These posters are not being deceptive but show that there were real problems out there. The message is more of that we can do it instead of "Woe, how terrible the world is." WE CAN BE UNITED!!
