Saalburg / U.S. Government Printing Office / 1945 / (Second World War) Get the Jap and Get it Over! Work where you're needed. (Curiosities - Misc 2, 108658) Linen backed. This powerful World War II propaganda poster, illustrated by Allen Saalburg and produced by the War Manpower Commission, uses bold imagery and language to galvanize American citizens into supporting the war effort through labor. The poster features a battered and torn Japanese flag (and a fallen Nazi flag - VE Day having already been achieved) against a dark, ominous background, a symbol of Japan's vulnerability to American industrial strength. The slogan "Get the Jap and Get It Over!" conveys urgency, while "Work where you're needed" calls on citizens to join essential labor roles through the U.S. Employment Service. Designed to rally both patriotism and productivity, this poster reflects the intense language and racialized imagery typical of the era's propaganda. Codice articolo 108658
