Hoogspanning!: More Dutch Safety Posters

Fifty years of workplace safety posters courtesy of Geheugenvannederland.nl (Memory of the Netherlands)1926, poster by Albert Hahn Alcohol increases the risk of accidents This is a belated follow-up to my April 2013 post Vintage Safety. I tried really hard not to include too many "missing finger" posters. [update: I swear to you that I wrote that fate-tempting sentence on Monday and then totally hurt my hand moving boxes the next day at work. I may never again look at this post.] "Hoogspanning!" means "high voltage!" (see poster below). 1925, poster by Jacob Jansma1925, poster by Jacob Jansma Don't spit on the nuns (Benjamin Peret probably loved this poster)1925, poster by Jacob Jansma1925, poster by O.
