Keep Him Flying! Buy War Bonds; Vintage WWII Poster by George Schreiber, 1943
This is an original color World War II propaganda poster, with art by Georges Schreiber (1904-1977) Belgian. The U.S. Government Printing Office published the poster in 1943. The poster depicts a fighter pilot preparing to get in his plane. The pilot fastens his harness and keeps an eye on the skies beyond him. The plane is painted with six kills, as indicated by the six rising sun Japanese flags pasted below the cockpit. The text “Keep him flying!” is printed in yellow over the plane’s body. “BUY WAR BONDS” is printed in large black block letters at the bottom. "U.S. Government Printing Office: 1943-O-507063."
This poster, an original offset color lithograph, is in good vintage condition. All colors are original, still intact, and vibrant. Creases, corner wear, and fold tears are noted, all shown in the photos provided. Printed by the U.S government printing office. Poster size: 39.75 x 28 inches.
