Don`t Let The Shadow Touch Them

Don’t Let The Shadow Touch Them

By: Z Traylor

History  Made in 1942 by Lawrence Beall.  Created for the US Department of Treasury to raise money for the war effort.

Appeal To Ethos  The appeal to ethos is that children are our future and so they should be protected from anything including foreign threats (in this case the Nazis).

Appeal To Pathos  The pathos of this poster is that no one wants to see children be threatened by anyone and so to make sure that would not happen you had to buy war bonds.

Appeal To Logos  Logically, the only way to protect your children was to support the war effort by any means, especially by buying war bonds.

Aesthetics  The lighting in the print makes you focus on the children while a shadow covers the rest of the print and encircles the children
