Date Sold 8/25/2016Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Unfolded World War II Poster (measures 30" x 40" [76 x 102 cm]) (Learn More) You Give Us the "Fire" We'll Give 'Em Hell!, the 1942 U.S. World War II (WWII) Home Front poster ("Let's go everybody - keep 'em firing!") encouraging people to contribute to the war effort through buying war bonds, and featuring great art of a pilot in an airplane! If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this is one of 78 very rare posters (including 53 WWI and WWII posters and 18 stage play posters) that mostly date from 1888 to 1945. These were originally acquired by an archive decades ago, and they have been in storage ever since, until they were recently consigned to us. Many of these are the sorts of posters that you can find reproductions of on the Internet, but finding guaranteed originals like these is incredibly difficult (years can go by before these are offered for sale or at auction). This is a very rare opportunity to purchase any of these 78 posters (which even includes a remarkable 1873 P.T. Barnum poster from his "Traveling World's Fair")! Note that in June of 2016, we auctioned around 100 posters that were from this same archive. The 78 posters we are currently auctioning represent most of the remaining posters from this remarkable find (we certainly wish there were lots more, but unfortunately there are not, so this is likely your last opportunity to acquire these great rarities!). Condition: very good. The poster was never folded. It has paper tape on the back of the borders, but that appears to have been for reinforcement. There are small tears in the lower left border and tiny paper loss in the right blank border. The poster can certainly be displayed and enjoyed as it is, or it would be a very simple linenbacking job. Learn More about condition grades
