World War II propaganda posters have always fascinated me, I'd like to get a few for the apartment. The War Bonds posters and the rationing ones are of particular interest, but there's one that I'd really like. Here's what it looks like:

I checked Art.com, Barewalls.com, and allposters.com. Google searching at the moment, but I'm not finding any where I can actually order them online. Anyone know of a place that has them?

A lot of the old propaganda posters are really funny. I found one earlier tonight that I'd have bought, but it's fairly small. And it's $25, which is a little more then I wanted to spend on a 13x19" poster.

I might still buy it, I'll have to talk myself into it :)

Those are both great!

Are they reproductions, made from original templates, copies, or what?

We have that poster in my Social Studies class, I'll see if I can find out where my teacher got it from.

If you find out a good place to get these posters, please let me know.

I'd be more interested in reproductions, as I doubt I'd be willing to pay a premium for an original.

The website I found the VD one on was a place that made reprodutions of the old propaganda posters. The "When you ride alone.." one I found in someone's collection of propaganda posters from WWII, so apparently it was an actual poster.

Ideally I'd like to by reprints larger then the original size (13x19")

Mr, Bond. I have the same fascination, I find both American and German war posters very interesting. for me its the art and the message they are trying to send. I can see how being a 17 year old kid in 1942 either American or German and seeing them plastered all over the place would make that kid feel like going to the nearest recruiter and signing up. really fascinating... I remember my HS history class the teacher had both American and German posters on the wall and just looking at them you could feel the pride from both sides.
