World War 2 Homeland Security USA Safety Patriotic Posters, a U.S. "Loose Talk" Type Poster:
"Less Dangerous than Careless Talk; Don't discuss troop movements - ship sailings - war equipment"
Espionage has been with us since early time but the immigrant/melting pot based nature of the United States and our relatively late involvement in World War 2 made 1940s America a lucrative environment for spies and potential saboteurs. Naturally the dangers and concerns of national security intensified when the United States entered the war and America's overseas military and homeland patriots urgently needed additional protection. The U.S. Government had a great need to alert its' military and private citizens to the presence of enemy spies and saboteurs lurking in American society. A major advertising blitz involving all media eventually produced thousands of remarkable "careless talk" type posters to warn people that small snippets of information regarding troop movements or other logistical details would be useful to the enemy and could easily compromise national security and U.S. military personnel' safety. These vintage 1940s public domain poster images like this one "Less Dangerous than Careless Talk; Don't discuss troop movements - ship sailings - war equipment" displayed on this page from the Safety and National Security World War 2 Gallery of this website allow you to own a copyright free piece of WWII history, a historic patriotic artwork poster.

Albert Dorne (1906-1965) 
"Albert Dorne was one of the most successful illustrators in American history…. Albert Dorne had the gift of encouraging and inspiring everyone who came in contact with him." John Howard Sanden
Albert Dorne had a wretched childhood, he grew up in the slums of New Yorks Lower East Side in the early part of the 20th century. Despite childhood afflictions with tuberculosis, heart trouble, and poverty, his dream was to become a rich and famous artist. Fatherless he dropped out of school at age 13 to help support his mother, two sisters, and younger brother; although his formal education came to a halt in the seventh grade he ended up with an Honorary Doctor of Fine Arts, from Adelphi College in1958. Against seemingly insurmountable odds, often working two and three jobs at a time Dorne became one of the most successful commercial artists of the century; in 1948 he started the Famous Artists School correspondence school for art, and recruited other well-known artists and illustrators to help him, even including Norman Rockwell; and yes he did eventually become wealthy beyond his wildest dreams.
