| Additional Information: | Original Watch Him! Feed Him! Go to the Oregon Coast! They Want You There! vintage poster. Linen backed in fine condition, ready to frame. Whale watching has been popular for people in the Pacific Northwest for decades. The Oregon coast, in particular, is a prime location for spotting various whale species, including gray whales, humpbacks, and orcas. One of this activity's most iconic and memorable reminders can be seen in the “Watch Him! Feed Him! 3 tons of krill” whaling poster from Oregon State. The poster, which features a stylized image of a gray whale, was initially created in the mid-20th century to promote whale-watching trips along the Oregon coast. It is a testament to the region’s natural beauty and the importance of conservation efforts to protect these magnificent creatures. The first line of the poster, “Watch Him!” is a call to action for people to come and witness these majestic animals in their natural habitat. For many people, whale watching is a once-in-a-lifetime experience that leaves a lasting impact on their lives. Seeing a whale breaching the water or gliding gracefully through the ocean is a sight that cannot be replicated in any other environment. The second line, “Feed Him!” highlights that whales consume large quantities of krill, a tiny shrimp-like crustacean that forms the foundation of the ocean’s food chain. By consuming krill, these whales help maintain a healthy ocean ecosystem. The poster reminds viewers that by watching these animals, they are playing a small part in the effort to preserve the ocean’s delicate balance. The final line of the poster, “Go to the Oregon Coast! They want you there,” is a call to action for people to visit this beautiful part of the country and experience the wonder of whale watching for themselves. Many companies offer whale-watching tours along the Oregon coast, and this poster is a testament to the importance of promoting these trips to people worldwide.
