“If An A-Bomb Falls,” United States Government, 1951

This was an illustration from a government-issue comic book, tasked ambitiously with educating the public about how best to survive a nuclear attack.  I believe that the name of the artist here is probably lost to history, though I saw one Internet commentator speculate that it looked like Jack Sparling’s work.

You can find the entire comic at Ethan Persoff’s excellent website here.
