Original World War II Office of War Information Poster No. 24 featuring dramatic wartime artwork depicting survivors abandoning a burning ship at sea beneath the warning slogan "A careless word… …A NEEDLESS SINKING". The poster measures approximately 22" x 28". It shows creasing and only faint age related blemishes. Overall, the poster remains in High condition and displays well with strong period imagery and messaging. This is an excellent example of early WWII American propaganda art and would make a fine addition to a militaria, WWII, or vintage poster collection.
