Fighting in the Factories

"Give 'Em Both Barrels"

Jean Carlu, 1941

Production efforts shifted from everyday goods to military materials soon after war was declared.

Posters urged workers to remain focused on their part in the war effort by working hard, caring for their tools, and taking their work as seriously as the fighting men on the front lines of the war.
