Note the similarities between posters promoting the war effort and ads for consumer goods; both use the same psychological strategy.

Posters were one of the most important tools the government used for persuading a variety of Americans, especially young white men and women, to support the war. The success of the wartime media blitz confirmed the power of the advertising industry.
