the art of war

came across an online exhibit presented by the u.k.‘s national archives called the art of war culled from it’s ministry of information holdings. historical propaganda has been extremely popular of late on the web and as such we’ve all seen a whole lot of it. this exhibit is one of the highest quality offerings i’ve seen so far. categories include books, caricatures, comics, magazines, pamphlets, etc along with the usual selection of propaganda posters (the thumb is of the “loose lips sink ships” variety). all well documented and presented at nice large scales. there is also the related films section to sift through. gorgeous.
