EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a powerful World War II poster created by the U. S. Army in 1944, aimed at promoting the proper use of equipment and supplies among soldiers. The lithograph, skillfully crafted by Will Eisner, features an iconic character named Joe Dope. In this illustration, we see Joe standing amidst an exterior battlefield setting, possibly in Japan during the war. The poster's message is clear: "Don't be a dope!". It serves as a reminder to soldiers about the importance of utilizing their equipment correctly and efficiently on the front lines. Through clever cartoon imagery and impactful text, this artwork aims to instill discipline and responsibility within troops. Eisner's artistic talent shines through his detailed illustration of Joe Dope—a mid-century man dressed in military attire—standing in a trench with various supplies surrounding him. This image captures both the seriousness of warfare and the need for soldiers to be vigilant when it comes to using their resources effectively. Granger Art on Demand presents us with this historical gem that not only commemorates World War II but also pays tribute to Will Eisner's contribution as an artist during that time period. As we gaze upon this extraordinary piece, we are reminded of the sacrifices made by countless individuals who fought bravely for freedom and justice during one of humanity's darkest chapters—the Second World War.
