An Original Vintage Unfolded World War I Poster (measures 28 1/2" x 40" [72 x 102 cm]) (Learn More) United Behind the Service Star, the 1918 U.S. World War I (WWI) Home Front poster ("United War Work Campaign") encouraging people to support the many service organizations, and featuring Ernest Hamlin Baker art of the flags of the Y.M.C.A., National Catholic War Council, Jewish Welfare Board, Salvation Army, War Camp Community Service, American Library Association, and the Y.W.C.A. flying at a military parade Artist: Ernest Hamlin Baker Important Added Info: Note that this is one of a remarkable group of around 100 guaranteed authentic mostly war posters (around 75 war posters, plus 25 others, including political ones) mostly dating from before 1900 through 1945, with 15 from after that date! These were originally acquired by an archive decades ago, and they have been in storage ever since, until they were recently consigned to us. Many of these are the sorts of posters that you can find reproductions of on the Internet, but finding guaranteed originals like these is incredibly difficult (years can go by before these are offered for sale or at auction). This is a very rare opportunity to purchase any of these more than 100 posters! Condition: good to very good. The poster was never folded. It had a 12" tear at bottom center and a 3" tear at top center, with many smaller tears around the edges and some small paper loss in the lower left blank border and upper right blank border. Someone mended all the tears with white tape from the back, which also took the place of the missing border areas described above (see our image). The image area of the poster had some creases scattered throughout. The poster would display well as it is. After a relatively simple linenbacking, the poster will look fantastic!
