Description: c.1918 Teamwork Builds Ships William Dodge Stevens WWI Poster Vintage Original Date: c. 1918Artist: Stevens, William DodgeSize (in): 49" x 36"Size (cm): 124.5 x 91.5Condition: BLinen backed: YesWilliam Dodge Stephens created this visceral poster image emphasizing America’s industrial might for the United States Shipping Board during the First World War. The poster's timeless message, extolling the virtue and importance of teamwork, still resonates today. Lean muscular men focus intently on the task at hand as one swings a heavy sledge and another wields an air hammer against the edifice of a ship hull glowing orange from an unseen blast furnace. The poster is highly effective at both celebrating the contribution of labor and conveying the message that, with respect to the war effort, America Means Business. This large impressive vintage original WWI poster has been professionally backed to linen with expert touch up as needed including some restoration to small areas of paper loss on the upper left and lower right corner margins, mitigation to creases and edgewear in places and repair to a tear in the image area on the right edge. The colors are strong and the poster displays very nicely. Overall condition is very good. Contact us for more information as needed.
