About the Item
The 1942 original poster by Éric for the "Secours National Croisade d'Hiver 1942-1943" is a poignant example of wartime propaganda, aimed at rallying support and resources during a period of immense hardship. Secours National, a French organization, was established to provide aid to those suffering from the impacts of World War II, and this winter crusade campaign specifically targeted the harsh winter months when the need for assistance was particularly acute.
This poster was created to generate awareness and solicit contributions for the Secours National’s winter relief efforts. The tagline "Croisade d'Hiver 1942-1943" translates to "Winter Crusade 1942-1943," invoking a sense of urgency and collective effort. The term "crusade" suggests a noble and essential mission, appealing to the public’s sense of duty and compassion during the war.
Éric’s design for this poster is likely characterized by emotionally charged imagery and a direct call to action. The visual elements may include depictions of families in need, children braving the cold, or volunteers distributing aid, all designed to elicit a strong emotional response from the viewer. The use of color and composition would be strategic, focusing on creating a powerful and immediate visual impact to spur donations and support.
Historically, the winter of 1942-1943 was a particularly challenging time for France, occupied by German forces and struggling with shortages of food, fuel, and other essential supplies. The Secours National played a critical role in providing relief, distributing food, clothing, and heating supplies to those in dire need. This poster would have been a vital tool in their efforts to gather the necessary resources and support from the public.
The poster’s creation during this period also reflects the broader context of wartime propaganda, where visual media was extensively used to influence public opinion and behavior. Éric’s artwork would have been part of a larger campaign to unify the public, encouraging them to contribute to the collective effort of national survival and resilience.

1943 Original french propaganda poster from WWII - Working in Nazi Germany
Located in PARIS, FR
Since 1940, and throughout the war, many foreign volunteers chose to work in Germany, whether for ideological reasons or, more often, for wages or even the release of close prisoners. But from March 1942 onwards, the Nazi government launched a vast policy designed to bring about an influx of labor on its soil. Indeed, due to the ever-increasing need for men in the army, the mines, industry and agriculture lacked the manpower to support the war effort.
As a prime target for this search, Vichy France...
