After fleeing Nazi Germany in 1936, Walter Trier (1890–1951) created numerous caricatures while in exile in London, helping the British Ministry of Information produce anti-Nazi leaflets and propaganda. By 1941, the likely date of origin for Trier’s “V for Victory” leaflet, propaganda had become an essential weapon in World War II, its practitioners seeking to fine-tune messages that would impact the enemy’s psyche or boost morale on the home front. The most influential examples of Trier’s visual battle against fascism are collected in this volume, accompanied by essays by journalist Philip Ottermann and author and Trier biographer Antje M. Warthorst.
