Vintage World War II "United We Are Strong" Propaganda Poster. Original WW II poster, "United We Are Strong" and "United We Will Win", 28" x 20", linen backed, OWI Poster No. 64, U.S. Government Printing Office: 1943-O-527286, by (Henry) Koerner. A bold and vibrant poster, beautifully illustrated with ten flag draped cannons blazing. Allied flags include: United States, United Kingdom, Italy, Russia and China. What distinguished the United States poster propaganda from British and other allied propaganda was that the advertisements remained primarily positive in their messages. The United States focused on duty, patriotism and tradition where other countries were focusing on fueling the people's hate for the enemy. "United We Are Strong" totally conveys the positive American message. Rolled, unfolded. Very fine.
Estimated Value $300 - 500.

 
Realized $216
