An Original Vintage Unfolded Australian World War II Poster (measures 16 1/4" x 22 3/4" [41 x 58 cm]) (Learn More)

Going Home? Don't be delayed by VD, the 1946 Australian World War II (WWII) poster warning soldiers that sexually transmitted diseases can keep them from going home, and featuring art of a soldier wrapped up in rope spelling "VD" by Franz O. Schiffers. Note that soldiers were endlessly warned that they needed to stay away from local girls and prostitutes because of the dangers of catching venereal disease! At the end of the war, the risk to soldiers became even greater, because any soldier with VD could not be sent home until they were cured, so, if they caught VD, they risked having to make very embarrassing explanations to their families, girlfriends, or wives, saying exactly why they could not be sent home along with the other men!
Artist: Franz O. Schiffers

Condition: good to very good. The poster was never folded. It has some light creases from being tightly rolled at one time and there are lighter creases scattered in various areas. There is a small amount of surface paper loss at right in the black background. It is otherwise in pretty nice condition.
