- Abstract:
- Discolored white poster with black lettering. Title at top of poster. Title may refer to a larger publication in which the visual images appeared. Note below title addresses alcoholism and work. Visual images are illustrations depicting horrific accidents resulting from drinking on the job. Near the top, two trains collide while a man sleeps by the lever used to switch the tracks. Near the bottom, a small wooden boat is split in half by a much larger ship. The two sailors thrown from the small boat each hold a bottle in their hands. Additional text on poster deals with losing the notion of professional responsibility, caution, and continual vigilance. Caption below illustrations notes that the sober man is his own master, but the drinker loses the confidence of all. Publisher information at bottom of poster.
