During the war, Schleger was commissioned by London Passenger Transport Board, the General Post Office (GPO) and the Ministry of Food to produce information posters including the latter’s famous ‘Grow Your Own’ posters for the Dig for Victory campaign. Christian Barman, Publicity Officer for London Transport, also commissioned Schleger to design posters to warn passengers to take care during the blackout. Schleger's bold graphic designs often wittily incorporate a play on the image of a circle or zero and have stylistic affinities with German refugee John Heartfield’s photomontage.
