During World War II,
the United States government crafted hundreds of different posters to promote
military service, the conservation of natural resources, and so on. The
Northwestern University Libraries has collected and digitized 338 of these
posters for close consideration by the curious public. The majority of the
items here were issued between 1941 and 1945, and they can be searched by
keyword, issuing agency, description, and artist. First-time visitors may do
well to look over the two excellent posters created
by the celebrated
artist Ben Shahn. http://digital.library.northwestern.edu/wwii-posters/
