Condition B+: repaired tears, creases, abrasions and restoration along vertical and horizontal folds. Designed and issued six months before the bombing of Pearl Harbor in 1941, the U.S. government reissued this poster on a larger scale the following year, when the war machine was heavily reliant on the mighty output from American factories.
