Use It Up, Wear It Out, Make it Do! is a 1943 U.S.A World War II propaganda poster. The image demonstrates both male and female roles in conserving goods and labor. The woman is shown patching the man's pants as he in turn is depicted fixing his push-lawn mower. The artwork is lighthearted and humorous of addressing the importance in re-use and conservation of materials during the war for the United States.

What People Are Saying...

  • If there's anything you want to know about posters, vintage or more modern, there's nothing Mr Ross doesn't know. His open and friendly manner helps one to choose the most suitable material whether for decoration, investment or whatever... I can't recommend him highly enough.

  • Just wanted to say thanks for the poster. You sent it on Thursday and it was delivered the following Monday (nearly quicker than it took us to get home) to our house in Perth, Australia. We have just had it framed. We love it; it goes perfectly with the room.

  • The Ross Gallery has the best selection of vintage posters I have ever seen. Seriously, if you are in the market, they are the people. And, they know everything there is to know about the posters' provenance.
