Estimate value
$ 5 000 – 8 000
A fine example of Flagg's immortal First World War recruiting poster. In an effort to cut costs (and not hire a model) Flagg drew Uncle Sam in his own image. From there the poster took on a life of its own, becoming so iconic that the military reused the image during the Second World War. An particularly bright and clean example.
1023 x 760mm. Linen backed (mild soling at extreme lower right corner, a few minor creases).
