This powerfully dramatic poster is considered by many to be among the most iconic American posters of WWII. Uncle Sam, wrapped in Old Glory, appears almost like Moses parting The Red Sea with armies charging forward below and the skies above filled with bombers. The message is simple, cry havoc and let slip the dogs of the American war machine.  

This vintage original lightly used poster is folded as issued and shows only modest handling and pinholes on the corners.   The colors are strong and overall condition is very good.  This poster is truly among the artistically greatest and most effective American propaganda posters of the WWII era and displays beautifully.
