Back them up!: Heavy Stirling bombers raid the Nazi Baltic part of Lübeck and leave the docks ablaze
Description
British poster depicting an air raid on the German port of Lübeck, showing fires and damage to the docks area and appealing to the public for support. The subtitle is 'Heavy Stirling bombers raid the Nazi Baltic port of Lübeck and leave the docks ablaze.' The sky is filled with searing searchlights and an explosion of a bomb on the factory at right adds to the dynamic effect of the night raid.
