EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage photograph captures a powerful WW1 recruitment poster that showcases the indomitable spirit of the US Marines. Dating back to circa 1917, this iconic image features the Teufel Hunden (Devil Dogs), a German nickname for these American heroes. The poster depicts an exhilarating chase between a fierce bulldog and a dachshund, symbolizing the relentless pursuit of victory by these brave soldiers. Displayed prominently at the Devil Dog Recruiting Station on Smithfield & Water Streets, this compelling artwork aimed to inspire young men across America to join their ranks during one of history's most tumultuous times. As World War I raged on, patriotism and duty called upon individuals to step forward and defend their nation. The juxtaposition of the bulldog's tenacity with its smaller adversary represents both strength and determination in overcoming any challenge faced by these marines. With its vibrant colors and bold typography, this recruitment poster served as a rallying cry for all those willing to sacrifice for their country. Today, this historic print serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by those who fought in WW1. It stands as a testament to the unwavering courage displayed by generations past while inviting us to reflect on our own responsibilities towards peace and freedom.
