To blab is to help the enemy! 1954

Created by V. Koretskiy in 1954, this Soviet poster “To chatter means to help the enemy!” warns against careless talk that could aid spies or traitors. It shows a man whispering confidential information to another person, whose face reveals a hidden side – one half an ordinary man, the other a Nazi officer with a monocle. This powerful visual symbolizes how seemingly harmless gossip can reach the enemy. The green background and stark contrast between light and shadow intensify the sense of danger. The poster delivers a sharp wartime reminder: silence and vigilance are as vital as weapons in defending the homeland.
