World War 1 - Propaganda Posters

This Poster is minsleading in the fact that it is advertising war as a hobby to men, in the fact they get to play sports such as cricket and football, which in reality isn't the case. Bright colours of the mise en scene are used to create a postitive, happy atmosphere. Masculine sterotypes that men like sports means the poster would appeal to most men.
