VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This vintage advertisement from Leytonstone Jig & Tool Co. Ltd., located at 606 High Road, Leyton, London, E.10, is a striking example of wartime propaganda combined with commercial promotion. The central image features an allegorical scene where classical figures are seen forging weapons amidst clouds and machinery—a metaphor for the celestial importance of manufacturing during war times. A quote from "The Prime Minister" in a speech bubble reinforces the urgency and significance of their work: “Something is going on in space and time … and beyond space & time which spells duty.” This message aims to inspire workers and citizens alike about their role in contributing to the war effort through industrial production.
