Rebus/Icon Incorporated into the Type

I found this excellent example of a rebus in my Historical Survey book. It is a poster for the Office of Emergency Management. It has strong visuals that tie in very well with the headline: "America's Answer! Production." The "o" in Production is represented by a bolt that the giant productive American hand is screwing in.
