FRANK BRANGWYN (1867-1956) HELP YOUR COUNTRY STOP THIS / ENLIST IN THE NAVY. Circa 1917. 62x78 1/2 inches, 157 1/2x199 1/2 cm. American Lithographic Co., New York. Condition B+: repaired tears, restored losses and overpainting at edges, some affecting image; creases and abrasions in margins and image; vertical and horizontal folds. Two-sheets. A masterfully designed and printed lithograph portraying the survivors of a U-boat attack in their lifeboat, struggling against the raging sea. That Brangwyn chose a monochromatic scheme and such a large format only intensifies the emotion expressed by the image, lending it an air of reality, desperation and grit. One of only two posters Brangwyn produced in America during the war. Rawls p. 80, Theofiles 50.
