This vintage original WWII poster is one in a series issued by Abbott Laboratories in conjunction with the United States Treasury Schools-At-War Program. This poster features a simple but compelling image of a soldier embracing his wife with the title BUY WAR BONDS. The back of the poster has a small text box with information on the Russian born artist Symeon Shimin who had painted the critically acclaimed mural on the Department of Justice building in Washington DC titled Contemporary Justice and the Child. After the war, Shimin would go on to illustrate numerous children’s books and film posters among other projects.

This vintage original poster is in very good condition with no tape or pinholes and only light handling wear. It doesn’t appear this poster was ever hung up or used. Overall condition is very good. Please see our other listings for more posters this WWII Abbott Laboratories Schools-At-War Series.
