Description
This British Second World War poster was a generic poster produced by the Minsitry of Information to be distributed to different locations where Lt. Col. Davies was speaking. Lt. Col. Davies was a Canadian soldier who commanded the 44th Canadian Infantry Battalion and was awarded the DSO with two bars in the First World War. He lectured on his experiences and the importance of a strong relationship between the United States and Great Britain.
During the Second World War, the Ministry of Information employed people such as Lt. Col. Davies to give talks about other countries, cultures, and general war matters. This poster would have been distributed to the venues that she presented in ahead of time and they would have filled in the relevant details to advertise the talks. The poster also includes a short biography.
This item has been digitised with funding provided by Commonwealth Government.
