Description
Australian Second World War poster depicting a woman wearing a headscarf, overalls and gloves. She poses smiling while she rests her right foot on a pitch fork. The poster declares 'Do your bit on the food front/ grow your own Vegetables for Victory'. Produced during the war, the poster's intention was to encourage savings and thrift, encouraging people at home in Australia to grow their own fruit and vegetables in an effort to reduce the source supply from growers and transport from interstate or overseas.
