Blot it Out with Liberty Bonds - large WW1 format.
This is the first poster to call the Germans Huns. Bloody hand print identifies their cruelty. The image reflects a growing anti-German sentiment in the U.S, and was one of a number of posters equating the Hun with limitless bloodshed. St. John became well known as an artist for his later illustrations in pulp magazines, especially those with a fantasy and mystical theme. His original oils in that genre are quite sought after.
This is the larger format of the poster. Note that original WW1 posters are printed on a cotton paper that is ivory in color. The poster paper was NOT bleached to make it white.
Archivally mounted on linen, with some restoration.
This is an Original Lithograph Vintage Poster; it is not a reproduction.
