EDITORS COMMENTS
Two Striking WW2 Posters from the Mary Evans Picture Library's Onslow Auctions: 'Spot at Sight, Enemy Uniforms' During the tumultuous years of World War II, effective communication and information dissemination were crucial for the morale and success of the Allied forces. Posters, as a powerful visual medium, played a significant role in this effort. The Mary Evans Picture Library's Onslow Auctions recently showcased two captivating WW2 posters that offer a glimpse into the past, reminding us of the importance of vigilance and awareness during wartime. The first poster, titled 'Spot at Sight, Enemy Uniforms,' features four distinct enemy uniforms: a German parachutist, soldier, airman, and sailor. The design is simple yet impactful, with each figure illustrated in stark contrast against a monochrome background. The poster's primary objective was to help the public identify and report any enemy soldiers or saboteurs they might encounter. The use of authentic uniforms and clear, concise instructions reinforces the urgency and importance of the message. The second poster, also from the 'Spot at Sight' series, focuses on the importance of naval charts and their role in the war effort. This poster emphasizes the significance of reporting any unauthorized individuals found in possession of enemy charts, as this information could potentially save lives and aid in strategic planning. The poster's design is equally striking, with a sailor and a submarine prominently featured, emphasizing the naval theme. These posters serve as a testament to the power of visual communication during wartime and offer an intriguing glimpse into the past. The Mary Evans Picture Library's Onslow Auctions continues to unearth such fascinating historical treasures, providing researchers, historians, and enthusiasts with valuable resources for studying the rich history of the 1940s.
