wartime poster

Morale-boosting advertisement

A wartime poster is a printed notice or advertisement produced during armed conflict, typically by governments to rally public support, encourage enlistment, promote rationing, or boost morale.

These posters often feature bold imagery and simple slogans: Rosie the Riveter became an iconic wartime poster image.

The term usually evokes World War I and II propaganda art.
