This powerful and dramatic WWI poster is the only known war poster designed by the newspaper correspondent and artist Edmund M. Ashe. An American Army doughboy hurls a hand grenade as German soldiers with glistening bayonets look up from the protection of their trench. Smoke billows from something burning in the distance in a hellish war scene adding emphasis to the poster’s message to “Lend As They Fight – Buy War Bonds To Your UTMOST!”. The lower margin indicates “The W.F. Powers Co. Litho, N.Y.”.
This vintage original poster has been professionally backed to linen with a couple short tears expertly repaired. The linen backing has a couple pinholes on the corners not affecting the poster which has bold color and displays beautifully. Overall condition is very good.
