The Story

Original Item. Only One Available. This is a great WWII AAF Poster which promoted Combat Crew Co-Operation among members of the Army Air Forces. The poster has been meticulously linen-backed to preserve it for years to come. The dimensions including this linen-backing are 19½ x 26¼”. The dimensions of the poster itself, however, are roughly 18¼ x 25”.

The poster depicts a Japanese Aircraft carrier with the Red Sun of Japan at the bow. The deck is in the middle of an explosion as we view the impact through the reticle of a bomb sight. The caption reads:

Target
Destroyed
PRECISION BOMBING
Did this!
COMBAT CREW
CO-OPERATION
MADE THIS POSSIBLE

The bottom of the poster bears manufacturer info:

POSTER NO. 1211 9/42
AIRCRAFT IDENTIFICATION SECTION DIT-AAF

This dates the poster to September 1942. A fantastic example, ready for further research and display!

Note: This poster will ship rolled.
