Scope and Content
A wartime propaganda poster by Joseph Harry Anderson depicts a scene of grieving parents learning that their child died during the war. The caption, "Americans Suffer When Careless Talk Kills!," is printed on top of the scene in bold red lettering. This scene evokes fear and sorrow reminding Americans that any leaking of sensitive information will lead to the death of an American soldier or more aptly somebody's child. A small caption is typed up on the back explaining the artwork and other works of Joseph Harry Anderson.
