Americans All  1919 Howard Chandler Christy (1872-1952) Offset Lithograph In her right hand, Lady Liberty clutches an American flag. With her left, she hangs a laurel wreath above a list of names. The wreath is a classical symbol of victory. The gold star tells us that the soldiers on the Honor Roll are no longer alive. They have given the last full measure of devotion. Casualties of war. Only one of the fourteen names suggests Anglo-Saxon origin. Then, as now, the United States was a nation of immigrants. This poster acknowledges the immigrant contribution to the war effort. Seven million copies were distributed through the nation's foreign-language press.  Gift of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Price FA1975.51.52
