This simple, yet effective and dramatic, poster gets right to the point - careless talk about troop movements and locations has serious consequences. An unassuming housewife, her hair in Victory Rolls, stares at us intently. Her careless talk in a flippant moment has led to a soldier's overseas demise.The theme of careless conversation was a major concern of the U.S. government on the home-front. Prior to the war, there had been numerous massive pro-Nazi rallies in the United States and so the threat of espionage was considerable. Many posters were created, some graphic and others humorous to help bring awareness to this concern.This is an Original Vintage Poster; it is not a reproduction. This poster is conservation mounted, linen backed, and in excellent condition.We guarantee the authenticity of all of our posters.
