EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative Save for Defence poster, designed by the renowned British railway poster artist Frank Newbould in 1940, is a poignant reminder of the collective spirit and determination during the early years of the Second World War. The image of a determined young boy, clutching a savings jar and gazing intently towards the horizon, encapsulates the idea that every small contribution mattered in the face of great adversity. Newbould's design was highly regarded during this period and was featured in Modern Publicity (1941) as an example of the best posters produced in the previous year. The artist's skillful use of color, composition, and symbolism effectively conveyed the message of saving for the war effort. The image of the boy, set against the backdrop of a post office and bank, emphasizes the importance of community and unity in the saving campaign. The Save for Defence poster is a testament to the power of art in inspiring and mobilizing people during times of crisis. It serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by individuals during the war and the critical role that saving played in supporting the war effort. This iconic poster is part of The Twentieth Century Posters Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, a valuable resource for those interested in the history of graphic design and the impact of art on society.
