Some of this is new - I've never seen another source that actually names the graphic designer (a chap called Wall-Cousins according to the article). As a UK Government blog article I would assume this is considered a reputable source?
The lead picture, "The original 1939 Keep Calm and Carry On poster", purports on its description page to be a "Digital scan of original KEEP CALM AND CARRY ON poster". To my eye, this looks highly unlikely to be an undoctored scan of an original print from that era. 86.191.146.73 ( talk) 03:24, 27 January 2019 (UTC)

I don't see why the poster in the lede shouldn't be replaced by a vector image instead -- QuickQuokka [ talk • contribs 19:03, 8 July 2023 (UTC)
