The first is "We Can Do It," featuring Rosie Riveter, who has become synonymous with women's equality. Another influential design is " I Want YOU For U.S. Army," with its bearded figure wearing a star-spangled top hat. The image gave birth to Uncle Sam, the well-known symbol of the U.S. On 1stDibs, find a range of WWII posters from some of the world's top galleries.
