Original iconic WWI Uncle Sam poster. This poster is the original not one of the many reproductions, reprints or fakes out on the market. This came directly from a hoard of WWI posters rolled in original distribution boxes. "I Want You For US Army" first printed in 1917 by artist James Montgomery Flagg. Poster is professionally linen mounted with minor restorations, has full margins and has NOT been trimmed. Measures 30" by 40". This poster has gone for as much as $14,000 in recent auctions and is an excellent example in good condition, even very poor condition versions have been sold on Ebay for as much as $5,000. This one is priced very well for condition and should go quickly! Most of these posters didn't make it and the ones that have are usually in very poor condition. This one has some repaired tears, some time-staining red in the background due to being rolled for years and having been exposed to moisture. Poster is a lithograph printed by Leslie-Judge Co., New York. This is possibly the most famous poster ever made and at the time was the main way for the US to recruit and promote war efforts.
