This is one of the most graphically important posters of WWII. Its dramatic, clean design with simplified forms is a sharp contrast to the painterly techniques of WWI posters; we have firmly entered the era of graphic design in this piece. During World War ll the United States Government was very concerned about the need to keep troop movements confidential and for family members and friends of soldiers overseas to not discuss their loved ones travels and plans. There was a great fear of the enemy's agents overhearing some idle talk that could result in American lives lost. This bold graphic emphasizes that point. Glenn Grohe (1912-1956) was an American painter and illustrator who specialized in commercial art such as magazine covers and product advertisements. He created several WWII posters.
