About the Artist: Joseph Binder (March 3, 1898 June 26, 1972) was an Austrian graphic designer and painter. He is recognized as one of the pioneers of the modern poster, noted for his refined, stylized images and high-impact colors. Some of his best known works include posters for the 1939 New York World's Fair, the U.S. Army Air Corps and the American Red Cross. (Wikipedia)/ About the Poster: The Nuclear Navy is a term coined to describe vessels powered by nuclear reactors. Incorporating nuclear energy to naval vessels revolutionized naval warfare. The general idea of nuclear ships was that they would not have to make regular stops for fuel like conventional vessels, making them only limited by supplies and crew endurance. The Navy recognized the benefits of nuclear energy for propulsion purposes and began research. From its humble beginnings, the Navy has produced many of the world s first nuclear propelled vessels, from aircraft carriers to submarines. (www.history.navy.mil)/ Ready to frame.
