This striking WWII poster was created by the artist Henry Koerner and issued by the Office of War Information in 1943 as OWI Poster No. 61.    A bank of large cannons, each festooned with the flag of an allied nation, fire a fusillade of artillery shells into the sky at an unseen enemy.  The brilliant muzzle flash of the cannons underscore the poster’s tag line United We Are Strong – United We Will Win.  This poster is the 56" x 40" size which is the hard to find largest size issued for this poster.   

This poster is folded as issued and probably wasn't ever hung up or used.   There poster is free of tape or pinholes but does have a small chip of about 3/4" square off the poster at the intersection of the fold lines on the left side just above the muzzle flash of one of the cannons (see photo).   The back of the poster shows some toning from age not affecting the front side.  The colors retain their original vibrancy and overall condition is very good for this vintage WWII era original.
