Propaganda Posters

My wonderful wife purchased a book collection of WWI and WWII posters for me on a whim. Some of these images are so well known that they've become part of our daily vocabulary, whether it's Uncle Sam picking you out of crowd or Rosie the Riveter showing that feminism wasn't invented in the 60's.

Other posters have been forgotten, or at least their messages seem to fall on deaf ears. I'd love to see some of these on the walls of your local strip mall or Home Depot. After all, have you really tried to save gas by car-pooling?
