JAMES MONTGOMERY FLAGG JAP . . . YOU'RE NEXT! 1945. 20x14 inches. Recruiting Publicity Bureau, U.S. Army. Condition A. A "muscular and aggressive" (Paret p. 196) and therefore unusual image of Uncle Sam. Here, our kindly Uncle has removed his jacket, displaying his star-spangled vest and red-striped pants, and is rolling up his sleeve in preparation to fight. But even in this powerful image, the threat is not one of violence, but rather of increased American production, as seen by the wrench in his hand. Paret 277.
