This is a Fine War Art Poster in Remarkable Condition!
Please Study The Detailed Photos!
Photos may not be 100% accurate but I strive to get them as close as possible and will tell you if they are off in any way.
For instance:
This poster photos are an excellent match color wise but my lighting set up cast a very light shadow on the top part of the full photo you see of the poster, but the color is uniform with no shadow!
However the day I re-took he back photos the sky was blue & the sun shinning and a blue shade is seen on the images some more than others.
This poster
was purchased along with many others at a Bradford Vermont Library Liquidation Sale years back where these were all stored in an upstairs closet since WW1 & have along with many others been stored in flat files ever since!
I am in the process of liquidating my large unique collection of WW1 & WW2 Art Posters along with many other collectible items including Antique & Vintage Paper Collectibles, Art & a Vast Collection of Art/Picture Frames along with a Large Assortment of Collectible Items of Interest.
I will try to keep posting new ones so you may want to keep an eye on my postings if you are a collector or investor of World War One & Two Art Posters.
I will be happy to answer any questions you may have!
Thanks For Stopping In & Taking An Interest In This Item!
