Rare WWI patriotic posters up for auction
New York
A COLLECTION of about 2,000 posters from the World War I era, considered to be one of the world's finest and amassed over more than a decade by a US Army officer, will be sold at auction later this month, Guernsey's auction house said on Tuesday.
The collection, which will go under the hammer during an online, unreserved auction with no minimum bids on June 30 and July 1, includes the famous poster of a stern-looking, top-hatted Uncle Sam pointing a finger with the words, "I Want You for US Army".
