Description

Baden-Powell Are YOU In This? 1915.  Poster designed by Lt. General Baden-Powell, hero of Mafeking, a Boer War victory, and founder of the Boy Scouts. A cross section of society works to win the war except the slacker, a dapper civilian standing with his hands in his pockets. Shaming ‘slackers’ into action was a key ingredient of wartime policy.  30×20  near mint, conservation backed.
