About the Item
Original Pull down your shades! Rare original World War II poster. Save up to 10% on fuel. Isn't that the truth. Created for the U. S. Government Window Shade Institute. The original poster issued by the US Government. The purchase comes with a certificate of authenticity. Conservation linen backed and ready to frame. Very good condition with original U.S. Government issued poster fold marks restored.
