MAN464540 Irish Free State Poultry (colour litho) by Keating, John (1889-1977); Manchester Art Gallery, UK; (add.info.: Commisioned by the Empire Marketing Board and printed by Thos. Forman & Sons Ltd for HMSO; Manchester Art Gallery holds a fascinating collection of artist-designed posters, commissioned by the British government\'s Empire Marketing Board between 1926 and 1933. The EMB\'s main function was to increase sales of Empire-grown and Empire-made goods throughout Great Britain, its Dominions and its Colonies. One aspect of its activities was a poster campaign that was designed to turn Britons into \'Empire-conscious\' consumers. Over 200 posters were acquired by Manchester Art Gallery in the 1930s. The posters\' strong images illustrate the Empire\'s people, places and products. However, for a contemporary audience, the posters sometimes express uncomfortable beliefs and raise difficult questions about the legacies of the Empire today.); 穢 Manchester Art Gallery ; British, out of copyright.
