This Australian Second World War poster was produced by General Motors Holden (GMH) in 1941, and was likely produced for use in one of their factories. The poster is aimed at factory workers, attempting to highlight the importance of Australian industry in stopping Hitler. The poster is titled "A Shadow Across Hitler's Path", which features in the top left corner. Beneath this text is a shadow of an Australian industry worker, with a protractor in his right hand and a caliper in his left.
