During 1942, a specific group of posters based on the title Loose Talk Can Cost Lives was launched.This is one of the images from that campaign, in this case cautioning sailors to be discrete when meeting new females.John Philip Falter (1910 - 1982) was an artist and illustrator famous for his The Saturday Evening Post covers. He studied at the Kansas City Art Institute and later moved to New York. He was influenced by the art of Frederic Remington and Norman Rockwell. In 1943 he enlisted in the Navy and designed over 300 recruiting posters for the American war. He became popular for the loose-lips-sink-ships theme in his posters, but also worked in the recruiting posters for the Waves. Falter was a prolific artist who depicted a wide range of subject matter in a variety of media. He illustrated over 40 books, and became an excellent portrait painter. In 1980, a documentary video: A View from the Standpipe: John Falter's World, was released by Nebraska Educational Television. This documentary provides more information about John's work, through one-on-one interviews in his Philadelphia location and shows a number of his paintings.This is an Original Vintage Poster; it is not a reproduction. There is minor tear in the right margin which will be minimally noticeable once framed. This poster has been printed on heavyweight paper, and is in excellent condition.","brand":"John Falter","offers":[{"title":"C1942 \/ 14.25 \/ 20","offer_id":51814274138358,"sku":"10144","price":845.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0050\/5728\/2122\/files\/Loose-Talk-Can-Cost-Lives-Sailor-Beware-Poster.jpg?v=1791581918","url":"https:\/\/postergroup.com\/en-sg\/products\/loose-talk-can-cost-lives-sailor-beware-10144","provider":"The Ross Art Group","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
