The Toughest Job is Still Ahead, the 1943 U.S. World War II (WWII) poster ("'The most crucial test of our combined strength is still before us' - Admiral Ernest J. King U.S.N. Commander-in-Chief U.S. Fleet"; "'The Battle of the Atlantic is still a 'round the clock fight' -Admiral Royal E. Ingersoll U.S.N. Commander-in-Chief Atlantic Fleet"; "'Let's not talk Victory while there's a single Jap ship afloat and fighting' -Admiral Chester W. Nimitz U.S.N. Commander-in-Chief Pacific Fleet"; "Meet your schedules...for victory") urging increased production, and featuring quotes from Navy Admirals with their portraits. Note that the poster was warning against over confidence on the part of the American public, and in fact, victory was two years off!

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.

Important Added Info: Note that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube.

Condition: good. There are several inches of paper loss in the upper left corner (see our image). There is much foldline separation especially in the lower vertical foldline and horizontal fold, and MUCH of the separation is repaired with tape from the back. 8-10" of the lower left corner has separated from the poster and is repaired with tape from the back and there is another jagged 8" tear at left of the center crossfold, also repaired with tape from the back. Please see our super-sized image to get a good sense of the condition of this item prior to placing a bid.
