The intensity of jungle warfare is in on display in this American WWII poster by Sargeant D.N. Roman. Depicted is the battle for Peleliu, a small island in Micronesia. Over 1300 Marines were lost in the battle for the Japanese-run island. 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: "Peleliu - Landing at Peleliu on Sept. 15th, 1944, veterans of the First Marines Division met fierce resistance from enemy troops entrenched in ridges and caves. The Marines routed many of the foe with flame as the island was secured in a 26-day pitched battle".

What People Are Saying...

  • 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.
