Advantages of Posters...

Posters were a backbone of the Nazi propaganda effort, aimed both at Germany itself and occupied territories. 

It's advantages included;

• The visual effect; as by being striking,  it would reach the viewer easily and catch their attention.
• Posters were also, unlike other forms of propaganda such as film and other media sources, difficult to avoid. This was because forms of posters were put up everywhere.
• Imagery frequently drew on heroic realism; for example the Nazi youth and the SS were depicted monumentally, with lighting posed to portray grandeur.. this therefore influenced others to want to get involved and be seen in the same way.

Hans Schweitzer produced many Nazi propaganda posters.
