This Halloween, let me give you as your treat this 1918 U.S. government pamphlet about venereal disease given to soldiers returning from World War I. Trick or treat indeed.
In 1969, the Ad Council provided a very important message about venereal disease with a tune as catchy as the clap. Remember friends, VD is for everybody.
Just wanted to alert people to this excellent collection of anti-venereal disease propaganda from World War II over at Sociological Images. Lisa Wade's larger point is to explore the virgin/whore.
