USA: I want You for U.S. Army

On Thursday I got six postcards: three from the USA, one from Russia, one from the Netherlands and one from France.

One of the cards from the USA shows Uncle Sam on the World War I poster "I want You for U.S. Army". The poster was created by James Montgomery Flagg in 1917. It is based on a British poster and is one of the famous depictions of Uncle Sam. The poster was reused in World War II.


Stamp:
The Moon (issued 22-02-2016)


Thank You very much Colleen!
