Ministry of Food Posters

A new exhibition at London's

Imperial War Museum (Feb 12 to Jan 3 2011)

pays tribute to a nation's creativity and resourcefulness

in the face of wartime – and peacetime – food rationing.

Here is some of the eye-catching

British Government propaganda

used on the 'Kitchen Front' during that time.

https://www.telegraph.co.uk/travel/picturegalleries/7165696/
Vintage-Ministry-of-Food-posters.html

The following posters

were all used during the Second World War

to encourage austerity and stoicism

on Britain's home front.

They form part of an exhibition

at the Museum of Brands in London

entitled Make Do and Mend
(www.museumofbrands.com ;

020 79080880; 2 Colville Mews, Lonsdale Road,

Notting Hill, London W11 2AR).

The exhibition runs until November 29, 2010.
