EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative recruitment poster, featuring the Public Schools Brigade of the Royal Fusiliers and the 118th Infantry Brigade, calls out to young men to "Hurry up, boys. Fill the ranks." The image, published by the Central Recruiting Depot at Great Scotland Yard in Whitehall, SW, dates back to 1868, long before the devastating events of the First and Second World Wars that would see the bravery and sacrifice of countless soldiers from the British Isles. The Public Schools Brigade was a part of the larger Royal Fusiliers regiment, one of the oldest and most distinguished military units in the British Army with a rich history dating back to 1685. The 118th Infantry Brigade, formed in 1908, was a part of the Territorial Force and saw action during World War I. The poster, created by artist John Hassall, RI, RWA, effectively employs the use of patriotic symbolism and a sense of urgency to encourage enlistment. The image of young men in military uniform, standing at attention and gazing determinedly towards the viewer, conveys a sense of duty, camaraderie, and adventure. The use of the Public Schools Brigade insignia, a shield bearing the crest of a lion and a torch, adds an air of prestige and exclusivity to the recruitment call. This powerful and evocative poster is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by generations of soldiers in the name of their country. Its historical significance makes it an invaluable addition to any collection of military history or British military memorabilia.
