A 1940’s New Zealand vintage Health Department Poster depicting fish around a toothbrush and ‘Remember-Use Your Toothbrush Immediately After Every Meal’, printer’s details at base, good original condition and tones. 50.5 x 38 cm Noted by Hamish Thompson in ‘Paste Up’ 2003, page 7.4 cm ‘Children Worthy Target Audience for the Health Department Poster Campaigns to Combat Tooth Decay’. Displayed in school clinics, the poster designers had a difficult job distracting girls and boys waiting in the ‘Murder House’. Predictably, they resorted to bright colours and cartoon characters
