I just had to blog this as I couldn't stop laughing.
This is an old wartime moral boosting poster (which wasn't actually ever put into production in the 1940's - a proof was found in a box of books in a second hand shop in Alnwick). We've been seeing it a lot with the present economic crisis.
Anyway here it is....
And looking through blogs tonight I saw this...... it tickled me :)
Great timing with the government crisis here in the UK tonight.
Both from http://www.pedlars.co.uk
I have that poster in my studio. I love it.
ReplyDeletelove it!!
ReplyDeletehelen - you are a great Pugin fan like me - I seem to remeber ages back you bought the books of Pugin's designs - i have been looking at them on amazon - are they worth having? - by the way have you ever been to Pugin's church in Cheadle as I remember you are from St Helens when you came down last year - I taught in St helens at Rainhill and we live in Warrington
ReplyDeleteLOL! Very funny, and alarmingly apt.
