This striking poster was created by the artist James Montgomery Flagg shortly after the United States entered WWI and around the same time Flagg’s famous Uncle Sam “I Want You For The US Army” poster was issued. A U.S. Army Doughboy, a U.S. Navy Sailor and a factory worker lock arms and step jauntily forward in unison above the tag line Together We Win. This poster was created for the United States Shipping Board Emergency Fleet Corporation and the lower right hand corner indicates “The W.F. Powers Co., Litho. N.Y.”.
This poster has been professionally linen backed with some expert repair and touch up as needed including repair to a couple edge tears and slight overpainting on the upper right corner. The poster shows nice color and really captures the camaraderie of those serving aboard and on the Home Front to win the war. Contact us for more information as needed.
