Care of Instruments is Vital
EDITORS COMMENTS
- A Striking WW2 Poster from the Archives of the Ministry of Aircraft Production, 1943 This evocative WW2 poster, titled "Care of Instruments is Vital," is a powerful reminder of the importance of precision and dedication during the tumultuous years of the Second World War. Printed for the Ministry of Aircraft Production in 1943, this poster showcases the patriotic spirit and unwavering commitment to the war effort that characterized the 1940s. The poster features a playful yet poignant cartoon illustration of various aircraft instruments, including an altimeter, depicted as jars filled with different substances. The caption, "Your Jar is Their Jam," emphasizes the connection between the care and maintenance of these essential instruments and the safety and success of the pilots and their aircraft. The vibrant red background and bold text add to the sense of urgency and importance, while the inclusion of cartoon characters, such as an eskimo, penguin, and igloo, adds a touch of whimsy and levity to the otherwise serious message. The consequences of neglecting the care of these instruments can be catastrophic, as demonstrated by the failure of an aircraft's altimeter, which is depicted as an empty jar. The image of a pilot in a plane, looking worriedly at an empty instrument panel, underscores the potential danger and the importance of taking care of these vital tools. This poster is a fascinating glimpse into the history of the 1940s and the role that industry and dedication played in the war effort. Whether used to inspire workers in a factory or to remind pilots of the importance of their work, this poster remains a powerful symbol of the spirit of the era. Join us in exploring the rich history of the past, one image at a time. This "Care of Instruments is Vital" poster is just one of the many treasures waiting to be discovered in the extensive archives of Mary Evans Prints Online.
