(70cm x 102cm)
Marines fire away across enemy lines in Tarawa, Japan in this American WWII poster by Sargeant H.A. Jackson. It is part of a 1945 enlistment campaign by the U.S. Marine Corps, which depicted different scenes of battle. Each poster in the series features art by an active servicemember.
The text of this poster reads: "Tarawa - At Tarawa, Japan's garrison was confident of stopping the United States' great amphibious drive. The Second Marine Division, Reenforced, assaulted that gun-laden atoll on Nov. 20, 1943, and in 76 hours of flaming battle silenced the last Japanese gun and raised the Stars and Stripes".

If there's anything you want to know about posters, vintage or more modern, there's nothing Mr Ross doesn't know. His open and friendly manner helps one to choose the most suitable material whether for decoration, investment or whatever... I can't recommend him highly enough.

Just wanted to say thanks for the poster. You sent it on Thursday and it was delivered the following Monday (nearly quicker than it took us to get home) to our house in Perth, Australia. We have just had it framed. We love it; it goes perfectly with the room.

The Ross Gallery has the best selection of vintage posters I have ever seen. Seriously, if you are in the market, they are the people. And, they know everything there is to know about the posters' provenance.
