Original Vintage WWII The Sky's the Limit Poster by Courtney Allen 1944
Located in Boca Raton, FL
In America during WWII, every resource was poured into the war effort. With over 12 million Americans - 11% of the total population - serving in the armed forces, everything from food to labor was tight on the Home Front.
