An Original Vintage Folded World War II Poster (measures 37" x 52" [94 x 132 cm]) (Learn More)

Let's All Watch Our Pennies, the 1945 U.S. World War II (WWII) Home Front 2-sided poster ("This store is pledged to fight inflation keep prices down"; "OPA Ceiling price list"; "Kill inflation where it starts"; "To keep food prices down"; "We post ceiling prices... please check them") encouraging everyone to keep inflation down, and featuring art of a business owner and a customer with Uncle Sam. Note that this poster is called an "over-the-wire banner". That means that it has a fold down the middle and then it has an image on the top and bottom. If you open up the poster, the images look upside-down to each other. That is because it was intended that you would drape this poster over a string or a wire and then hang it in the center of a room, so that people could see one image approaching the banner and then the other image from the other side. You rarely see posters like this anymore, but they were once quite common.

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube. Because the poster has a different image on each side, we have taken two images, but the winner of this auction, of course, gets the one poster!

Condition: very good. The poster was folded up and there are many creases along the folds, with a few smudges in the middle right of one of the sides. Otherwise, the poster is in pretty nice condition!
