EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative and powerful poster, titled "Back Up the Fighting Forces," is a testament to the indomitable spirit and unwavering resolve of the British military during a time of great conflict. Dated to the early 20th century, the poster calls upon the public to support the army, navy, and air forces by recruiting new soldiers, sailors, and airmen. The image at the heart of the poster is a striking one, featuring a determined soldier, sailor, and airman standing shoulder to shoulder, their gazes fixed on the horizon with unyielding determination. Each branch of the military is represented by its distinctive insignia: the soldier wears the iconic red coat and bears the Union Jack, the sailor holds a trident and wears a navy blue uniform adorned with gold anchors, and the airman dons a leather flying helmet and goggles, with the wings of the Royal Flying Corps emblazoned on his chest. The background of the poster is a chaotic scene of battle, with explosions and smoke filling the sky, and the sound of gunfire ringing in the air. The caption above the image reads, "Your Country Needs You," a call to action that resonated deeply with the British people during the First World War. This historic poster is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the brave men and women of the British military, and the importance of unity and determination in the face of adversity. Its powerful imagery and evocative text continue to inspire and captivate viewers, making it a valuable addition to any collection of military history or historical posters.
