Bandwagon Propaganda

2009
This was created by someone who was making fun of Hilary Clinton partnering with Xerox suggesting that every candidate should do this to try to succeed in making a change. Regardless, the poster resembles Obama's own "Hope" campaign which was a very clean and sophistcated design, as is this even in black and white.
I could not find the year or designer of this poster but it looks extremely WWII-like. This poster is a good representation of the bandwagon approach to get people to join the war. Everyone's face who is on the train looks happy to be apart of the war which implies that if you would have joined the war, you would be happy too. The colors give it an antique, traditional feel and the brown background is the same color of the uniforms. The font choice is a little too large and overpowers the image.
