Journal Title: Journal of the Human and Social Science Researches - Year 2014, Vol 3, Issue 4

Abstract

Posters prepared by England to motivate soldiers for joining the army during the First World War, was a great success to achieve the above-mentioned aim. Nevertheless, these posters, which were in mutual interaction with the understanding of advertising in the period and which were also adopted by other nations also served for different aims in the later times. The diversity of these posters increased until the Second World War were used in the United States in order to get women's participation in the economy, to highlight the importance of austerity policies and to motivate people to buy treasury bonds, which were also known as war bonds. In this study, posters about war bonds, which were used by the United States to generate financial support for the army during the Second World War, was analysed within the framework of values they symbolize.
