This is a vintage original and rare WWII poster was created by the artist Henry Koerner and issued by the Office of War Information as OWI Poster No. 61 in 1943. This poster was targeted at the fishing industry and shows a salty crew of fishermen pulling nets full of fish into their boat under the title America’s Fishing Fleet And Men…Asset’s To Victory. The artist’s name appears on one of the fish in the lower right hand corner of the image. This is one of the rarer OWI posters issued during WWII as it likely didn’t see widespread distribution beyond areas that had established commercial fishing industries.

This vintage original poster has light handling wear and modest toning from age on the margins. There are two small pinholes in the lower margin but no other pinholes or tape. The original owner applied a small VFW ink hand stamp near the lower right hand corner but this is against a dark color field and isn’t very noticeable. Overall condition is very good for this vintage original.
