What it is
A poster Hubert Morley made for the Women's Land Army in 1944, held by the National Archives as 44-PA-1511 in its World War II Posters series.
Why it matters
The Women's Land Army put women to work on farms in place of the men called up, and was modeled on the British Women's Land Army.
What to notice
Pitch in: a haying word for helping out, chosen for a campaign that sent women into the fields.
A pitchfork word, for a farm with no men.
