FMP_ Split duct Posters

These dramatic and economical designs use photography and overprinting to create powerful images. To make best use of paper resources during the war most posters were printed 2 up. Ink and press runs were kept to a minimum, maximum impact was still the underlining brief, they were mainly printed using a technique called, 'split duct process', two colours in one pass and a black key colour on top, ending up with a 3 colour poster on a two colour printing press.
