EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking WW2 poster, titled "How to Tackle a Fire Bomb: Indoors and Outdoors," dates back to the early 1940s and was produced by the Ministry of Home Security during the height of the Second World War. The poster is a testament to the resourcefulness and resilience of the British people during this tumultuous period. The poster features a bold, red, white, and black design with clear and concise instructions on how to handle fire bombs both indoors and outdoors. The illustrations are explanatory and easy to follow, making them accessible to people of all ages and backgrounds. The top half of the poster focuses on outdoor safety measures. It advises individuals to keep a bucket of water or a hosepipe nearby, to keep fire escapes clear, and to never attempt to put out a large fire bomb alone. The bottom half of the poster deals with indoor safety measures, such as keeping doors closed to prevent the spread of fire, using a wet blanket or sack to smother a fire bomb, and calling the fire brigade as soon as possible. The poster's message is clear: in the event of a fire bombing during the war, it was essential for individuals to take swift and effective action to minimize damage and protect themselves and their loved ones. The poster serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of emergency preparedness and safety during times of crisis. This historical artifact offers a fascinating glimpse into the past and the unique challenges faced by people during the Second World War. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in wartime history, emergency preparedness, or the history of public information campaigns.
