Reynold Brown Poster Design "Killing Time is Killing Men" Design KT7 / Smoking Man with Body |
|
|
As in KT6 the lazy worker takes a break to smoke. Perhaps this shows the consequences of killing time most clearly. There are no toy soldiers as in KT5, here the man is real. A closer implication of guilt is made by clearly placing the worker over the soldier. Unlike KT1 and 4, where the German has killed the American with help from the lazy worker, here the worker seems to have done the killing. This was the design that was used.
