Cette célèbre affiche fut produite par le gouvernement britannique en 1939 au début de la seconde guerre mondiale mais le concepteur de l’affiche lui reste inconnu. 2,5 Millions d’exemplaires ont été imprimés, jamais utilisé, ou très peu. C’est en l’an 2000 qu’une copie refait surface et commence à être réutilisée. Certains l’on utilisée pour en faire l’image d’une gamme de leurs produits, mais avec internet et les réseaux sociaux, c’est surtout les internautes qui l’ont utilisée et détournée de beaucoup de façon. Après une petite recherche sur Tumblr, DeviantART ou encore Flickr, j’ai récolté 85 affiches avec toujours pour slogan « Keep Calm And » mais avec une fin différente.

Séries, films, événements politiques, dictons, répliques de films ou séries, sexualité, musique, on passe par tous les styles.

Il y en a quelques unes que j’ai réalisé moi-même : Bazinga, Give Me Five, Stop Making DuckFace, et Google.

Si vous en avez à me proposer qui ne sont pas présente ici, n’hésitez à laisser un commentaire ! ;)

English version of text after the jump

This famous poster was produced by the British government in 1939 at the beginning of the Second World War but the designer of the poster remains unknown. 2.5 million copies have been printed, never used, or very little. In 2000 a copy resurfaced and began to be reused. Some personnes use to make an image of their product, but with the internet and social networking, this is especially users who have used and misused in many ways. After a little research on Tumblr, Flickr or DeviantART, I’ve collected 85 posters with the slogan « Keep Calm And » but with a different end.

Series, movies, political events, sayings, aftershocks of movies or series, sexuality, music, we pass through all the styles.

I made : Bazinga, Give Me Five, Stop Making DuckFace, et Google.

If you have any to offer me that are not present here, please leave a comment! ;)

    These are definitely not the best out there. Tumblr has 30 or 40 much better than these.

    Bonjour! Great collection, some I haven’t seen yet, and I’ve been blogging about Keep Calm and Carry On since early 2009 – and I wrote about the history of the poster in 1997!

    Hi! I made the « Keep Calm and Call Batman » one. It may not be anything terribly original, but a link back to my original post would be nice.

    Thanks!
