EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful recruitment poster, printed in 1915, was issued by the Parliamentary Recruiting Committee during World War I to encourage British citizens to enlist and help end the war. The poster features bold, grey, white, and black text and lettering, with a clear call to action: "Help to end the War." The image of a determined soldier carrying a rifle and marching forward into the enemy's country underscores the message that individual action was needed to secure victory. The battlefield scene in the background, with smoke rising from the horizon, conveys the urgency and intensity of the conflict. The text emphasizes the importance of the fight in Belgium and France, where the British Army was engaged in a "Battle for Freedom." The use of the word "gallant" to describe the army adds a sense of nobility and honor to the cause. The poster's historical significance lies in its role as a visual representation of the patriotic fervor and determination that fueled the war effort during this critical period in world history.
