Note that on April 2, 1917, President Wilson went before a joint session of Congress to request a declaration of war against Germany. Wilson cited Germany's violation of its pledge to suspend unrestricted submarine warfare in the North Atlantic and the Mediterranean, as well as its attempts to entice Mexico into an alliance against the United States, as his reasons for declaring war. On April 4, 1917, the U.S. Senate voted in support of the measure to declare war on Germany. The House concurred two days later. The United States later declared war on German ally Austria-Hungary on December 7, 1917. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.

Condition: good to very good. he upper half of the poster has darkened slightly (see our image). It has tiny writing in the upper right blank corner.

It is otherwise in pretty good condition and after a very simple linenbacking the poster will look great! Learn More about condition grades
