Date: 1942Artist: Flagg, James MontgomerySize (in): 20” x 13” Size (cm): 50.8 x 33Condition: B+/A-Linen backed: NoThis vintage original poster was created by James Montgomery Flagg and issued by the American Red Cross in 1942. For this poster, Flagg recreates the Uncle Sam figure from his iconic I Want You For The U.S. Army WWI poster. Uncle Sam puts his hand on the shoulder of a Red Cross nurse, her hands raised as if summoning the nation to action, with text across the bottom which reads Your Red Cross Needs You! This poster is on lightweight cardboard and shows light handling wear and bit a faint foxing in places. The colors retain vibrancy and overall condition is very good.
