Propaganda posters are some of the most interesting primary sources, particularly those from the world wars.![]() This one is a fairly simple, direct appeal to Allied unity. ![]() And who could forget your old pal, Ivan? This was actually one of a whole series that included Chinese and Australians, among others. ![]() ![]() Feel free to put up more. |

Spoiler: click to toggle (Spoilered because it's too big) Not actually a propaganda poster, but an amusing relic from the war years. |

Here are some Eastern European posters. Russian Civil War The words on the dogs are the surnames of White Russian leaders - Denikin, Kolchak, Yudenich. ![]() Dedicated to Red cossacks. The horseman on the poster looks a lot like Vasiliy Chapaev. Unfortunately, I don't really understand the text... ![]() A play on the "Uncle Sam wants you!" poster. The text says: "Did YOU apply as a volunteer yet?" ![]() The text says: "From dark to light, from battles to education, from grief to happiness." The text goes: "Peace and freedom in Sovdepiya", Sovdepiya being Soviet Russia. ![]() "For united Russia!" ![]() Another one inspired by Uncle Sam's finger, this time a White Russian version. The text is based on pre-reform Cyrillic, so I really can't figure out what it means - but going by the Soviet version, I'd say it says something in the manner of "Why aren't you in the Army?" Later I'll post some WWII posters. Edited by Petar, Jul 4 2013, 07:51 PM.
