Government Printing Office 1944. Fred Cooper. Poster. Color lithograph. Measures 27 3/4" x 19 7/8"<br/> <br/> This original World War II-era poster was part of an anti-inflation campaign initiated by the Office of Price Administration designed to encourage American citizens to support the war effort. During the previous world war the US experienced an inflation rate of 62%. When WWII began President Roosevelt established the OPA to prevent price-gouging and unfair access to consumer goods. The effort was considered successful with inflation between 1940 and 1944 rising only 28%.<br> <br> The woman wears a red and white striped blouse contrasted against a blue background with stars evoking the American flag. Her hair is coiffed and she wears makeup as well as a white ruffled apron over her blouse. In this way the poster demonstrates how women could contribute to the war effort without sacrificing their femininity a somewhat mixed signal that speaks to cultural dynamics in the United States in the 1940s. A smaller graphic overlays the poster reading "Produce and Conserve / Share and Play Square / Food Fights for Freedom." In very good condition with some wear to margins and along original fold lines. A closed tear to left margin has been professionally repaired. Some cracks and chips to lower margin. The poster is otherwise clean and vibrant.<br/> <br/> Government Printing Office unknown

Washington DC: United States Office of Price Administration 1943. Ephemera. Very good. During the Second World War posters like this one hung in most of the grocery stores in the United States but few of them have survived. A key homefront concern of the federal government was runaway inflation which had posed a significant economic problem during World War One. In addition to rationing the federal government implemented price controls for projects in high demand and short supply. Stores were not supposed to charge more than the posted price and there was a corresponding campaign to convince shoppers not to pay more.<br /> <br /> This poster is likely from Richmond Virginia rather than the eponymous city in California. It covers meat dairy products and many name brands of groceries.<br /> <br /> 32 by 24 inches. A very good copy with light chipping to the edges and some minor splits to the folds. SHIPS FOLDED. This is an original World War II poster not a reproduction. United States Office of Price Administration unknown
