The government wanted to save money on printing, so they left a blank rectangle at the bottom of the poster, and they made contracts with various companies to print large numbers of each design of this poster with each different poster carrying an ad for a company in that bottom area! If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that we have never before auctioned this war poster! As noted above, this version of the poster was contracted to a company in return for their getting to print an ad at the bottom, and this one has an ad for Sylvania Hygrade Lamps (other designs of this poster had ads for other companies).
