Description: | Large-scale toy manufacture in the UK ceased during World War II as factory production focused on the war effort, but production of games and toys that provided public information or could be used as propaganda was permitted and even encouraged by the government. The name 'Blackout' refers to the Blackout, the enforced darkening of buildings and streets during World War II. The Blackout was intended to hinder enemy bomber planes from identifying targets. This game provided the public with information about the Blackout rules but was also intended to help enforce the strict regulations that were, at times, unpopular. | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.5/ | Publisher: | Museum of London | Rights holder: | Museum of London | Subjects: | Leisure Power and Politics | Temporal: | 1939-1945 | Source: | Museum of London | Identifier: | http://www.20thcenturylondon.org.uk/rser... | Go to resource |
