Description
This British Second World War poster was a generic poster produced by the Minsitry of Information to be distributed to different locations where John Dodds was speaking. Dodds was born in British Guyana and spent much of his life working in Central and South America, as well as travelling extensively throughout America and Canada. His talks would have discussed his broad experience travelling through and working in these areas.
During the Second World War, the Ministry of Information employed people such as John Dodds 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.
