Keep a Pig, Save Waste and Make Food
EDITORS COMMENTS
- A 1940s Poster Encouraging Self-Sufficiency During World War II During the tumultuous period of World War II, rationing and resource conservation became a way of life for many people. This striking poster, titled "Keep a Pig, Save Waste and Make Food," is a testament to the innovative spirit and determination of individuals to adapt to the challenges of the time. The poster, produced in the 1940s, features a red, white, and grey design with bold black text and illustrations. The central image is a man, wearing a hat and holding a pail, standing next to a pig pen. The pig, with its curly tail and beady eyes, looks up at the man in anticipation. The tagline reads, "Keep a pig, save waste and make food." The poster is a call to action for households to keep a pig as a way to reduce waste and produce their own food. With rationing and food shortages a reality, keeping a pig was an effective solution for turning kitchen and farm waste into a valuable source of protein. The poster encourages men to collect food waste, such as vegetable peelings, to feed to the pig. The poster's design is simple yet powerful, using strong visuals and clear messaging to convey its message. The use of red, white, and grey creates a sense of urgency and importance, while the pig illustration adds a touch of charm and appeal. The bold black text is easy to read and reinforces the importance of the message. This original poster is a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing the resourcefulness and ingenuity of people during a time of hardship. It serves as a reminder of the importance of self-sufficiency and waste reduction, values that remain relevant today.
