Description
Depicts the aftermath of a bushfire. A brooding yellow grey sky hangs over the charred and smoking ruins of a house. An exposed chimney stack in the mid-ground is a poignant remnant. The title of the poster sits at the top, and the slogan 'Prevent Bush Fires'. This poster was likely produced soon after the Second World War, with its accompanying poster ARTV02507 being dated to around that period.
