EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "The Confiscation of Metal Household Items: A Call to Action from 1918" 2. Description: This evocative poster from 1918 encourages the public to surrender their household items made of aluminum, copper, brass, nickel, and tin. The image features a blacksmith-like figure, holding a sack filled with metal objects, conveying a sense of urgency and cooperation. The text reads, "Einrichtungsgegenstande aus Aluminium, Kupfer, Messing, Nickel, Zinn sind enteignet, liefert sie ab!" which translates to "Household items made of aluminum, copper, brass, nickel, and tin have been appropriated. Deliver them!" The regulation number is provided, and the text invites everyone to sign at the designated collection sites. 3. Background: During World War I, the German government implemented various measures to collect metals for military production. This poster is an example of the extensive propaganda campaign that aimed to encourage citizens to contribute their household items made of aluminum, copper, brass, nickel, and tin. The use of a blacksmith figure, traditionally associated with craftsmanship and industry, underscores the importance of the metal collection effort. 4. Significance: This poster is a powerful reminder of the collective spirit and sacrifice during wartime. It also highlights the role of propaganda in mobilizing the population for the war effort. The image of the blacksmith figure, holding a sack of metal items, symbolizes the transformation of everyday objects into valuable resources for the war machine. 5. Keywords: Metal household items, confiscation, World War I, propaganda, collection, blacksmith, aluminum, copper, brass, nickel, tin.
