An original 'Keep Calm and Carry On' poster that was printed in the run up to the Second World War has emerged for sale for £9,000.
The incredibly-rare propaganda poster was produced by the British government to boost morale as war loomed with Germany in 1939.
Although almost 2.5m copies were printed, the poster was not sanctioned for immediate public display and instead remained in 'cold storage' for use after devastating air raids.
