{"product_id":"your-scrap-brought-it-down-medium-14711","title":"Your Scrap - Brought It Down - Medium","description":"Created in 1942 during World War II, this dramatic American propaganda poster was issued to encourage civilians to contribute scrap materials needed for wartime production. Against a fiery background, a German military aircraft marked with Nazi insignia plunges from the sky. The direct headline, “YOUR SCRAP…brought it down,” connects civilian participation on the home front with military success overseas.The lower text urges Americans to “KEEP SCRAPPING,” specifically calling for iron and steel, rubber, other metals, and rags. During World War II, nationwide scrap drives collected materials that could be redirected toward the manufacture of aircraft, ships, vehicles, weapons, and other military equipment. Posters such as this were designed to make individual participation feel immediate and consequential.The poster is attributed to S. Broder, an American commercial illustrator whose work included wartime promotional and public-service graphics. Although relatively little biographical information about Broder is documented, his wartime work demonstrates the bold imagery, limited palette, and forceful typography characteristic of American government poster design during the period.The combination of striking aviation imagery, Nazi insignia, and a clear home-front conservation message makes it a particularly strong example of American World War II propaganda.This is an Original Vintage Poster, it is not a reproduction. This poster is conservation mounted, linen backed and in excellent condition. We guarantee the authenticity of all our posters.","brand":"Broder","offers":[{"title":"C1942 \/ 20.5 \/ 28.25","offer_id":51745237565686,"sku":"14711","price":445.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0050\/5728\/2122\/files\/Your-Scrap-Brought-It-Down-Medium-Poster.jpg?v=1790372473","url":"https:\/\/postergroup.com\/en-fr\/products\/your-scrap-brought-it-down-medium-14711","provider":"The Ross Art Group","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
