Featuring art of Columbia (an early symbol for America) standing on a globe and holding a flag and a sword, this poster also includes a poem by Francis Adams Halstead (one of the artists). Interestingly, at the top of the poem is a swastika. Of course, in 1916, this was in no way a negative symbol, for this was long before Adolf Hitler thought to adopt this sign as the symbol of his Nazi party.
