Uncle Sam Day!
Tumblr media
Perhaps the most recognizable poster in American history, James Montgomery Flagg’s depiction of Uncle Sam pointing at the viewer first appeared as a cover illustration for Leslie’s Weekly magazine on July 6, 1916. In that original version Uncle Sam asks: “What are YOU doing for preparedness.” Flagg’s inspiration came from a British magazine illustration created in 1914 by Alfred Leete. It featured Lord Kitchener, the United Kingdom’s Minister of State for War, pointing at the viewer while asserting “Your Country Needs YOU.”

Poster for New Members' Night by James Montgomery Flagg, November 15, 1928. The Lambs was America’s first professional theatrical club, established in New York in 1874. As a social club, the Lambs nurtures those active in the arts, as well as those who are supporters, by providing fellowship, activities, and a clubhouse for members. Mark Twain Tonight (with Hal Holbrook) and Stalag 17 were first performed at The Lambs before they went on to national success. Alan Jay Lerner and Frederick Loewe first met at the Club. Since its founding in 1874, there have been more than 6,700 Lambs.

Two illustrations from an article in the March 1930 issue of Good Housekeeping (about lowering the cost of having a baby) by James Montgomery Flagg.
If the name doesn’t ring a bell, let me show you what art by Flagg every single American and likely others elsewhere are quite familiar with:

Yup, he created the best-known image of Uncle Sam. Bet you haven’t seen this other version he did, recommending people buy War Savings Stamps to support the war efforts during WW1 in 1917...
