Knock the “Heil” Out of Hitler / GMC.

Artist: ANONYMOUS Size: 30 x 39 1/2 in./76.2 x 100.2 cm Condition: A. Printer: GMC Litho. Reference: PAI-L, 119 Key Words: War & Propaganda; American Knock the “Heil” Out of Hitler / GMC. Oh, that Hitler! What a buffoon! Even without the luxury of time, a bit of humor—mixed in equal parts with outrage and hatred, naturally—certainly can go a long way towards empowering people with regard to their fears and loathings. To that end, this unnamed artist combined a bit of clever word play with a cartoonish pratfall involving a GMC military vehicle and clumsy old Adolph to generate some humorous wartime commercialism. The poster itself was produced by GMC not only to promote victory, but also its military trucks at a point in history when being part of a war effort wasn’t viewed as a dubious distinction.
