An older coal worker smiles at us in this WWII poster by Norman Rockwell. The goal of this campaign was to recruit more workers to become coal miners, in an effort to boost America's supply of the important fossil fuel. To the best of our knowledge, this rare poster has never appeared at auction in this size format.

Norman Rockwell (1894-1978) was a renowned American artist and illustrator best known for his Saturday Evening Post cover illustrations. Rockwell's style had broad appeal to Americans for its approachability and sentimentality. He was prolific in his paintings, over which over 4,000 were created. During WWII, many of his works were done as advertising posters for the US Government.

  • 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.
