In late 1939 the MOI was appointed by the British Government to design a morale boosting poster that would be displayed across the British Isles in case of German invasion. As no such invasion occured, the now famous Keep Calm and Carry on design was never officially seen by the public. At the end of the war the majority of the posters were destroyed, making this large original example exceptionally rare.
