The poster - inexpensive, colorful, and immediate - was an ideal medium for delivering messages about Americans' duties on the home front during World War II. Design for Victory presents more than 150 of these stunning images - many never reproduced since their first issue - culled from the collections of the National Museum of American History, Smithsonian Institution. William L. Bird, Jr. and Harry R. Rubenstein delve beneath the surface of these colorful graphics, telling the stories behind their production and revealing how posters fulfilled the goals and needs of their creators. The authors describe the history of how specific posters were conceived and received, focusing on the workings of the wartime advertising profession and demonstrating how posters often reflected uneasy relations between labor and management.

World War I coincided with a golden age of achievement in the art of poster design, and all sides in the conflict employed the best talents to make maximum use of the poster's ability to stir emotions. This book tries to re-create a more innocent era in which a poster could be used to "sell'' a war. While the book is undeniably attractive, it covers too much ground and is too unfocused (despite the title, posters from many countries are illustrated; further, too many nonposter forms of propaganda are considered.) Instead of offering insights, the text simply rehashes popular World War I history adequately covered elsewhere. The general reader will find this sprawling study more confusing than enlightening.
