An Original Vintage Unfolded World War I Poster (measures 30" x 40 1/4") (Learn More) Another Notch Chateau Thierry, the 1917 U.S. World War I (WWI) poster ("U.S. Marines") featuring Adolph Treidler artwork of a smiling U.S. Marine Corps soldier carving a new notch into his rifle stock (which was a common practice to mark enemy kills). The U.S. Marine Corps was founded in 1775 as the "fighting branch" of the U.S. Navy. Most people think of the Marines are a completely separate branch of the military, but actually, they are still closely tied to the Navy (although many Marines don't like to think about that)! Note that the Battle of Chateau-Thierry was fought in 1918 and was one of the first actions of the American Expeditionary Forces (AEF) under General John J. 'Black Jack' Pershing. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Adolph Treidler Condition: very good. There are some tiny tears in the borders and tiny paper loss in the left of the bottom border. There are some smudges around the edges and in the white background, but other than the above, the poster is in pretty nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
