Image of the month
Life. November 1944.
This German propaganda flier from World War Two features an attractive female on a mock cover of a (then) popular magazine called Life. Turn the flier over however and the message on the other side is graphic and unequivocal - a parody of Life titled Death. The Nazi Party was a pervasive instigator of many types of propaganda not only to sway and control the hearts and minds of the German people but also its "enemies".
