An Original Vintage Linenbacked World War II Poster (measures 16" x 21 3/4" [41 x 55 cm]) (Learn More) America At War, the 1943 U.S. World War II (WWII) poster ("An exclusive news and picture service prepared for schools and showing our country in action.") featuring images and information about the U.S. war efforts and what school children can do to help. Note that this poster was "prepared for the U.S. Treasury as an aid to the nation's war effort by the F.W. Woolworth Co." (the famous chain of 5 and 10 cent stores). The poster was displayed at places that sold war savings stamps that could be bought in denominations of 10 cents and 25 cents. They were apparently aimed at children! If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. The poster was folded once in each direction and had minor fold and border wear. Someone mounted it on a thin linen with no excess (it has a stamp from a library on the back and a date of June 11, 1943, so it was likely mounted by the library on that date).
