VISUAL DESCRIPTION
The image shows a vintage notice or poster with the heading "SPECIAL NOTICE TO ALL EMPLOYED IN THIS DEPARTMENT. AVOID WASTING DOPE. " The text emphasizes the importance of avoiding waste in using dope and dope coverings, providing specific instructions on how to do so. It lists several points for careful use, such as keeping lids closed, not mixing excess quantities that can't be used again soon, and being cautious about cleanliness to avoid contamination. At the bottom of the notice is a statement highlighting that some ingredients used in making dope are also needed for other war materials; therefore, wasting these materials is unpatriotic. The company responsible for this message is Cellon Limited. Below this section is additional information stating that copies of the poster can be obtained from Cellon Ltd. , located at Broad St. House in London. This document appears to date back to an era when "dope" referred to a varnish or lacquer applied particularly to fabric-covered aircraft structures (not related to narcotics), emphasizing efficiency and resource conservation during what may have been wartime production efforts.
