1942 Minute Talks To America War Production WWII Franklin Roosevelt Gen Marshall

See scan below and check out my other auctions.  You are bidding on a World War II era pamphlet called Minute Talks to America No. 2 published in 1942 entitled "The Greatest Production Job of All Time.  Photo 1 shows the red front with a quote from Donald M. Nelson, Chairman, War Production Board.  Note upper left corner crease.  Colors still vibrant.  The pamphlet unfolds into 3 panels.  On the same side as the red cover, you have three quotes from FDR regarding the "high purposes for every American.  Finally on the other panel is a picture of General George C. Marshall with quotes from Marshall, William Green President AFL, and Representative Joe Starks from Alabama.  Please note the appearance of very light water stain on top of Marshall panel.

The inside panels show a photo and quote from Lieut. Gen. William S. Knudsen, in charge of War Dept. Production.  Panel 2 states the danger of the Axis powers and our need to gear up as a nation.  Finally, panel 3 has a photo and quote from Sidney Hillman CIO Labor Leader, and quotes by W.P. Withrow, President Congoleum-Nairn, Inc. and Eli L. Oliver, Chief of the Labor Relations Branch of the War Production Board.

Published by The Stephen-Davis Co. of Chicago.  Overall in nice shape with some minor wear but only a minute tear on the crease line of the bottom of the cover page.
