Clever Tactics
This poster was considered an innovation. It shows a soldier looking sadly into the viewer’s eyes. It bears the same resemblance of war-time posters that would have had the caption “Subscribe to War Bonds”. On this poster, the inscription implies that the men in the war were really Nazis or they were fighting for the same thing. The best propagandists in the world realize that you must continually come up with creative ways to engage with your audience. Rely on the same tired techniques for too long and people start to gloss over your posters and other messaging without a second glance.
