[QUOTE=CertainDOOM;29771248]Is that supposed to be the Sydney harbour bridge?[/QUOTE] Yep.
I LOVE the style of these posters, they're so timeless . I wish things today used that art style more, even the packaging for stuff from that era was awesome. [QUOTE=Motoko Kusanagi;29772597]Where's Ethiopia? Also, you have the PRC flag up there, when it was the ROC that fought WW2.[/QUOTE] And the Canadian flag looked like [img]http://www.medalsgonemissing.com/gallery/canadian-flag.jpg[/img] whats your point, the reason ethopias not up there , along with new zealand, south africa, poland, yugoslavia, norway , the netherlands, belgium, greece , inida, brazil, mexico etc etc is because there are no flag icons made for them for us to steal from SA.

Say what you want, but Americanism is what we have now. They warned us about it and now we've got it.

Posting WW1 Posters, since I think most of the good WW2 posters have been posted.

[QUOTE=PJAMA;29985824]Wtf? What are they doing in that picture? Was it safe to post that in public???[/QUOTE] It looks like it's trying to create support for the Italian invasion of Ethiopia. "If we don't launch an unprovoked attack then AFRICANS WILL RAPE OUR WOMEN."

By the way have some more propaganda, from Hungary. Strangely, I can hardly find anything from the world war era. Most of them are about Trianon, or just general soviet praising stuff [img]http://img594.imageshack.us/img594/2379/276hon.jpg[/img] [img]http://img827.imageshack.us/img827/199/cultiris41131web.jpg[/img] [img]http://img717.imageshack.us/img717/70/cultiris41158web.jpg[/img]
[QUOTE=ZuXer;30376336]Wait, Huns Mean us Hungarians?[/QUOTE] Huns as in the Germanic tribes that occupied what is now Germany. It's a negative connotation of Germans.
[QUOTE=Darrylop;30380603]Huns as in the Germanic tribes that occupied what is now Germany. It's a negative connotation of Germans.[/QUOTE] It was widely used by English-speaking forces during the 1st World war, along with "Boche." Dunno where that one came from. During the next war, they stopped using those names and started calling the Germans "Kraut" and "Jerry."
Interesting. For part of my course of design in college, we studied the use of propaganda posters. Nice to see some here from other countries.
I wish we could of made some in school, I think we were supposed to, but our teacher didn't get around to it. Also, Canada kicked ass on Juno beach :canada:
