Artist: unsigned
Size: 20"x30"
Comments: A poster I have never owned before...the very first Parliamentary Recruiting Commitee poster issued in 1914..."No. 1" in the long and great series of English recruitment posters of WWI. What statement on an English recruiting poster could possibly be more evocative of this great nation than "England expects every man to do his duty"? I was very pleased to find this rare poster in an original collection near Boston.
