Salvage Scrap to Blast the Jap: A Call to Action from the Thirteenth Naval District, United States Navy This powerful and evocative poster, created in the late 1930s or early 1940s for the Thirteenth Naval District of the United States Navy, depicts an eagle in determined flight, its sharp beak poised to strike a menacing snake labeled "Jap." The snake, coiled and ready to strike, represents the threat posed by Japan to American interests and security. The eagle, a symbol of freedom and strength, is not only a representation of the United States Navy but also a symbol of the collective will and determination of the American people to defend their country. The phrase "Salvage Scrap to Blast the Jap" is a call to action, urging citizens to contribute their scrap metal to the war effort. The poster was produced during a time when the United States was gearing up for war, and the need for resources was paramount. The poster was likely created as part of the Works Progress Administration (WPA) Federal Art Project, which employed artists to produce works of art for public use. The poster's bold design and striking imagery were intended to inspire patriotism and encourage Americans to do their part in the war effort. As the world teetered on the brink of war, posters like this one played an essential role in mobilizing the American people and focusing their energies towards the common goal of defending their country. Today, this poster serves as a reminder of the sacrifices and determination of the American people during a time of great challenge and uncertainty.
