Get the Good From Meat 1942 WWII Poster Reproduction

About this poster:

This vintage poster, titled "Get the Good... FROM MEAT," is a piece of American history from 1942. It features a series of black-and-white photographs that serve as a visual guide for cooking various cuts of meat. The poster provides practical tips for homemakers, such as how to pot roast tough cuts, make gravy from drippings, and use bony pieces for soup or stew, ensuring no part of the animal goes to waste.

Created during World War II by the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Bureau of Home Economics, this poster was part of the "Food for Freedom" campaign. This national initiative encouraged food conservation and efficient use of resources on the home front to support the war effort. The poster's direct, instructional tone and practical advice were designed to help American families stretch their rationed food supplies, highlighting the importance of every citizen's contribution to victory.

Our vintage-style wartime conservation posters evoke the spirit of resilience and patriotic dedication. This classic piece channels the enduring charm of wartime conservation, inviting you to appreciate an era when every resource was cherished.
