Description

Little is known about this all-text Second World War poster. It aims to promote an exhibition called "Fight for Freedom" and judging by the nature of the items in the exhibition as described on the poster, it was likely held soon after the end of the war. Exhibitions such as these were common throughout most Allied nations. Exhibitions showed photographs, models, and equipment such as aeroplanes, guns, and vehicles to those on the home front, thus giving them more of an understanding of what happened in other places during the war.
