This vintage original poster by Allen Saalburg was produced in 1942 shortly after the United States entered WWII. A battered American flag flaps in the wind against a backdrop of billowing smoke rising in a blue sky.  Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address is quoted to add emphasis to the stark tagline to Remember December 7th and the events at Pearl Harbor that day of infamy.  This poster was issued in a few different sizes and this one is the full size one sheet version.   

This iconic vintage original lightly used WWII poster is folded as issued shows light handling wear including a short tear of about an inch without paper loss at the top edge.  The poster has two pinholes near each lower corner and another single pinhole near the lower right hand corner.   The colors remain strong, the poster displays beautifully and overall condition is very good.
