Description

A poster produced for the Commonwealth Aircraft Factory during the Second World War. The poster depicts an airman wearing a flying suit, standing near an aircraft on the ground while other aircraft fly overhead. The text below the image urges high standards of work in making Beaufighters, and also appeals for new subscribers to the Beaufort Squadrons' Adoption Fund.
