About the Item

Original WW1 poster: Keep It Coming: "We Must Not Only Feed Our Soldiers at the Front but Millions of Women & Children Behind Our Lines" ...Waste Nothing. United States Food Administration. General John J. Pershing. The W. F. Powers Co. Litho N.Y. Linen backed. Good condition. Original WW1 lithograph ready to frame. The upper left outside boarder was repaired during the linen backing keeping this poster from being a 100 year old perfect condition vintage poster. This image created by the artist George Illion features a line of trucks with the word food on the side traveling to delivery needed supplies to our troupes and allies. One lone soldier is shown directing the truck traffic to keep moving. The trucks are done in an Army green since many computer monitors display different color tones. The “Keep” and “Coming” are done in a pumpkin orange lettering. This is an original World War 1 poster lithograph printed over 100 years ago.
