About the poster:  "From 1941 to 1946, comic books were considered non-essential and therefore weren’t imported into the country. With many fathers and brothers fighting overseas, or sisters serving in the army, and constantly worrying about whether they would come home or not. With no American comics crossing the 49th, some companies saw a unique opportunity. It has been called the Golden Age of Canadian Comic books."
