Loaded WWII Propaganda Poster
« on: April 02, 2009, 05:52:09 AM »
Why make 27ish propaganda posters when you can just combine them all into one!  How many stereotypes can you count?

For those of you who have missed the obvious that's a GERMAN propaganda poster.

EDIT: After a little research I guess that was done for the Norwegian or Dutch Nazi party, so not German, but NAZI just the same.

From the folks of the Waffen SS, "working for a more just world."

I like "world's most beautiful leg." :lol

It's pretty funny to see that poster because so many of us have German great-grandparents or great-great grandparents whose descendants made up a huge portion of our population at the time of the war, who fought for the United States.

Lusche, is it correct there were other version of this poster?  Didn't one say "terror culture" or something to that effect in German?
