Propaganda was essential for boosting morale particularly during the tail end of the war. During the final strikes against Japan, British forces operated as an integral part of the American task force. This poster depicts the Japanese rising sun setting over the ocean. Dense black smoke can be seen coming from the horizon line covering the Japanese rising sun. This poster was printed in London by His Majesty’s Stationery Office to promote the exhibition 'War Against Japan'. The show, arranged by the Ministry of Information, was opened on 21 August 1945 by the Prime Minister the Rt. Hon. Clement Attlee M.P. The show was likely held at a small pop-up gallery in Charing Cross Station that was run by the Ministry of Information during the war.
