This collection consists of twenty-two posters and one panoramic photograph from World War I. The collection also houses five posters from World War II depicting Norman Rockwell's Four Freedoms paintings. The World War I posters were illustrated by various artists, including Sidney H. Reisenberg and Howard Chandler Christy, and many are recruitment posters for the YMCA and the YWCA, the United War Work Campaign, the National Catholic War Council, the Jewish Welfare Board, the Salvation Army, and the American Library Assocation. A number of the images encourage the purchase of government war bonds. The panoramic photograph depicts a group of soldiers from the Tennessee Military Institute in Sweetwater, Tennessee, probably taken around World War I. The five Norman Rockwell posters are prints of his famous paintings from 1943 depicting each of President Franklin D. Roosevelt's Four Freedoms outlined in his 1941 State of the Union Address: freedom of speech and expression, freedom of worship, freedom from want, and freedom from fear. The collection dates between 1918 and 1943, although several of the World War I posters are undated.
