Keep Calm and Carry On (Motivational, Medium Blue) Art Poster Print Review

Purchased this item with black frame. The print/image quality of the poster is EXTREMELY poor. Essentially, you have a low resolution JPG image complete with aliasing/compression artifacts and variable coloring. The crown is particularly bad, but so are the letters since the "white" is many shades of white, blue, yellow, and other aliased colors of the rainbow. So... if you make sure not to get within 10 feet of the image, then it's worth it. However, if you're looking to hang this in a small office or in a hallway where you'll see it up close, you'll be constantly reminded of its poor quality. And the frame... worth slightly more than the poster.

The Keep Calm and Carry On poster was produced in 1939 during the beginning of World War II, and was a last case scenario to be used only should the Nazis succeed in invading Great Britain, in order to stiffen resolve. 2.5 million copies were printed, although the poster was distributed only in limited numbers. The poster was third in a series of three. The previous two posters from the series, "Your Courage, Your Cheerfulness, Your Resolution Will Bring Us Victory" and "Freedom is in Peril" were issued and used across the country for motivational purposes. In 2001, a copy of the "Keep Calm and Carry On" poster was rediscovered in Barter Books, a second-hand bookshop in Alnwick, Northumberland, and was reprinted.
