Eat Less Bread
Description
This poster is very direct, and is part of a campaign by the Ministry of Food in Britain designed to encourage the populace to respect food rationing. The title, 'EAT LESS BREAD' is superimposed on an image of a loaf of bread. The black text contrasts boldly with the yellow backdrop of the poster.
