The policemen, dressed in their iconic blue and white uniforms, are depicted in a comical chase, adding to the sense of fun and adventure. The use of bold, contrasting colors - blue, black, and white - creates a dynamic and eye-catching design, drawing the viewer's attention to the action unfolding on the poster. The running figures, with their exaggerated expressions and poses, add to the sense of energy and movement, while the tagline "Banishes the Blues" reinforces the idea that the paper offered a respite from the worries and anxieties of the time.
