Title
A name given to the resource
WWI Social Hygiene Posters
Description
An account of the resource
These items are posters from World War I. In terms of numbers, public health visuals were much more limited until the 1920s. The use of propaganda during the war, the growth of advertising afterwards, and the use of posters by the New Deal, and the increasing visual nature of American culture all contributed to the greater use of visuals within public health efforts after WWI.
