About
This text-only poster produced by the U.S. Food Administration lists the ways in which American citizens at home can use less food, presumably in order to save resources for the soldiers fighting in Europe. “Food” is printed across the top in large black letters, and beneath it in a smaller font is “1. Buy it with thought 2. Cook it with care 3. Use less wheat and meat 4. Buy local foods 5. Serve just enough 6. Use what is left.” Underneath that is printed “Don’t waste it.”

Custom Framing
We use the highest quality wood in our modern shop to create custom frames, frame your print with precision-cut acid-free mat board, and mount it behind a UV-blocking semi-gloss plexiglass to protect your art from the sun, dust, pollution, heat, and humidity. Then we add finishing touches like a wall hanging mount, wall friendly bumpers and a protective backing.
