We Want Books.

Date

1942

Description

When the Victory Book Campaign commenced in January 1942, posters advertising the book drive appeared across the country—in train stations, grocery stores, public libraries, schools, courthouses, and office buildings. This poster by C.B. Falls was ubiquitous. By the summer of 1942, 10 million books were collected and donated to the military.
