You Know Labour Government Works, 1966


Labour prime minister Harold Wilson called an election in 1966 in order to increase his majority. The party's new slogan reflected their two years in power. They also had a new logo, the target. This poster reflects the effect contemporary post-war advertising was having on the party in the 1960's.
