In the most famous of American recruiting posters, Uncle Sam (the male personification of the United States of America) demands your participation in the U.S. Army. The Army printed over four million copies of I Want You during the First World War. James Montgomery Flagg's depiction of Uncle Sam, reportedly modeled on the artists' own features, has become iconic. Uncle Sam's paternal appearance and forceful call to action heroized soldiers and one's duty to the country.

The vertical, smiling soldier in Books Wanted highlights the soldier's intellectual and emotional needs. Falls was a master at using composition, color and text to make his posters to convey a message.

America's youth were encouraged to participate in supporting the war. Groups like the Boys' Working Reserve and the Young Women's Christian Association (YWCA) Land Service Committee trained young men and women to relieve the labor shortage on America's farms.
In The Girl on the Land, artist Edward Penfield emphasizes the serenity of the scene with cool, bucolic greens and yellows. Far from the battlefield, America's young women serve their nation's need for food production through camaraderie and mutual support.

In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, exhibitions played an essential role in disseminating the work of individual artistic groups to a wider public, thus both bypassing and providing an alternative to traditional academic venues. Posters for these exhibitions, usually designed by the artists themselves, not only provide a unique record of the exhibition but represent some of the finest work of the period. This poster advertises an open, or unjuried, exhibition of works by Hamburg artists who had been released from military service ("Open exhibition of the works of the fine artists of Hamburg and the region who have been released from military service, to take place in the Kunsthalle, Hamburg").
