Red, White, and You! - American Posters of World War One
On view in the Morley Lecture Theater, first floor
Visit the Museum to celebrate America's Independence and experience a special presentation of American posters of World War One from the Permanent Collection. The United States created more posters than any other nation that participated in World War One to justify its involvement in the war and to enlist men, money and resources to sustain the military campaign. Along with recruiting efforts and other campaigns, the Victory Liberty Loan and Liberty Loan campaigns brought an outpouring of poster art both on the local and national levels. These loan drives raised over 30 billion dollars and did much for the proliferation of the poster as an important means of war effort communication.
CLYDE FORSYTHE (American, 1885 - 1962), And They Thought We Couldn't Fight - Victory Liberty Loan, 1918, Offet ligthograph on paper, Saginaw Art Museum Collection, #1998.8.10a
This poster was "adopted" for framing through the Museum's Adopt A Work of Art program by the 2007-2008 Theatre class at the Saginaw Arts and Sciences Academy (SASA) under the direction of Jenny Rogers-Belleau and student director Karyn Defoe with funds contributed by Mrs. Janet Nash, principal of SASA.
