"Aanplakbiljet" is a poster from 1918 by the city council of Amsterdam, a crucial piece of visual documentation from the period. The poster, printed in Dutch, is a warning to citizens about the rationing of bread during World War I. This type of government-issued propaganda was widely used during the war, aiming to regulate resource consumption and maintain public order. The design is simple and direct, featuring bold text in a clear layout. The inclusion of the coat of arms of Amsterdam adds to the official tone of the message.
