inches, 101x68 cm. U.S. Govern-
ment Printing Office, Washington, D.C.
Condition A: unobtrusive vertical and horizontal
folds.
One of a spate of U.S. World War II posters that
took advantage of some of the prevailing avant-
garde design techniques, such as photomontage.
The cinematic style of this image suggests it might
be a still taken from a (now lost) 1941 government
documentary called “Food for Freedom.”
