Description
First World War enlistment poster, produced both in Britain and Australia. The poster plays on notions of guilt and loyalty between mates. The poster is text, based, with no illustrations; however, the layout and use of different fonts and colours makes a striking design. A large red question mark placed against the yellow background dominates the poster. The title, in black italics, runs from the upper left corner to the centre. 'THINK IT OVER' is written in black text, across the lower part of the poster.
