Description
Illustrated by Barbara Marks for the Office of War Information, this WWII-era poster portrays an image of a Nazi soldier stabbing a Bible. Since posters can be an inexpensive way to disseminate information quickly, they became a viable medium of persuasion and information during wartime in America. They were generally shared in public spaces, including schools and offices, which made them easily accessible to a wider audience. As a common tool of warfare, propaganda posters are often powerful symbols that greatly influence people’s perceptions.
