"A WORD ABOUT THIS NEW GOVERNMENT POSTER

This simple but highly effective poster achieves its 'punch' through its similarity to the traditional apprehension-of-criminal advertisement.

It is the work of Victor Keppler. The painstaking selection of the model and the subtlety of her facial expression reflect the skill of this great master of the camera art.

Mr. Keppler's commercial clients constitute a 'who's who' of national advertisers; he is the holder of many highly coveted awards in photography; is the President of the Society of Photographic Illustrators and, in addition, finds time to work for many Government agencies.

THE PROMINENT DISPLAY OF THIS POSTER WILL BE APPRECIATED"
