Worth Working For and Symbols of Americanism are two of six posters in the Service Series, each pairing a short slogan with a simple, bold image. Posters of this kind circulated widely during World War II, when government agencies and private groups used them to urge civilians toward war work, enlistment and sacrifice. Their large, clear designs were meant to be taken in at a glance on factory walls, post office bulletin boards and transit cars. The pairing of "worth working for" with "symbols of Americanism" is worth noticing, since it ties national identity to everyday labor as much as to the battlefield.
