EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful and evocative WWI poster, produced by the Parliamentary Recruiting Committee in 1916, invites men who have recently moved to a new district to register for war service under the Group System, Removals. The Group System was a recruitment method used during the war to organize volunteers into groups based on their place of work or residence, making it easier for the military to process and deploy them efficiently. The red text and bold lettering of the poster exude a sense of urgency and importance, with the words "Join Up Now" and "Attest at once" encouraging potential recruits to take action. The image of a determined soldier in uniform, looking directly at the viewer, adds to the call to arms. This historical artifact is a poignant reminder of the massive mobilization effort required during wartime, as men from all walks of life answered the call to defend their country and contribute to the war effort.
