Re: Lt Heinz Escherhaus
I think you will be lucky after 77 years to find such posters especially when you do not know for certain where it was shown. Escherhaus would have probably gone to Canada in January 1941 and he returned to Germany after the war. I tried to contact him many years ago but he declined. There is a book called 'Behind Canadian Barbed Wire' no doubt long out of print. Very few escaped in the UK-a good source is of course 'The One that Got Away'. Then there was Oblt Harry Wappler and Lt Heinz Schnabel who managed to steal an aircraft and get as far as East Anglia. I am not sure whether the National Archives will have much to help you
