Carry Committee Enlist Join Lettering Parliamentary Patriotic Patriotism Recruiting Recruitment Strong
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative WWI poster, titled "Britain's Strong Arm and Yours," was produced by the Parliamentary Recruiting Committee in 1915 to encourage enlistment in the British military during the First World War. The powerful image features a muscular arm, clad in blue, red, and white stripes, extending from the British coat of arms, with the inscription "Britain's Strong Arm." The arm is balanced by the words "Yours" in bold red lettering, emphasizing the idea that the strength of the nation depends on the individual's contribution. The poster's patriotic appeal is further emphasized by the use of the Union Jack and the text "Carry us through. Enlist Now." The poster is a poignant reminder of the collective spirit and determination that drove individuals to join the armed forces during a time of great national crisis. With the slogan "Join the Fight," the poster calls on viewers to take action and enlist, demonstrating the unity and resolve of the British people during the First World War.
