The Spirit

[aspiringbelle]

Two of those (the Joe Dope posters) were done by comics pioneer Will Eisner.

I'm saving one poster for reposting.

WWII Propaganda Posters – Art to Inspire 🖼️

Victory gardens, rationing, safety at sea – during WWII the U.S. government plastered messages on posters nationwide. The Still Picture Branch holds 44-PA: World War II Posters (1942–45), including work by famed cartoonist Will Eisner. See dozens of these historic posters (from patriotic to poignant) in our Catalog: NAID 513498.

Image: “‘Of Course I Can!’ I’m patriotic as can be – And ration points won’t worry me!”. Home-front posters like this encouraged Americans to can food and save resources. ALT: Color WWII poster of a woman juggling jars of produce under text “Of Course I Can!” (NAID 515098).

Image: “Don’t be a dope – Handle equipment right!”. Cartoonist Will Eisner created Joe Dope, a bumbling GI who taught troops what not to do. (In this poster, Joe’s negligence sends a jeep’s wheels flying!) ALT: WWII safety poster by Will Eisner showing a jeep crash due to loose bolts, captioned “Don’t be a dope – Handle equipment right!” (NAID 514727).

From stirring recruitment appeals to humorous instructional comics, these WWII posters reflect the era’s spirit. Browse over 1,300 WWII posters in NARA’s holdings – an eye-catching window into the 1940s war effort.

Will Eisner, A Contract With God

[thesobsister]

Inspirational words from 95-year-old working master Jules Feiffer for all of us creating later in life and maybe earlier in life too.

A tribute is rendered in a lovely strip by Peter Kuper, who separately interviewed Feiffer on his career, his many creative hats, creating despite macular degeneration, and “the endless fight.”
