    Description

    This poster shows the American vision of cooperation between soldier and machinist. The dynamic eloquently shows a ship riveter at work in front of a light purple silhouette, unfurled flags and yellow background. This poster was published by Thomsen-Ellis Co. by John Sheridan out of Philadelphia. The poster was produced by the U.S. Shipping Board Emergency Fleet Corporation, which was organized to operate merchant ships for the U.S. government. This poster served as a reminder that the American worker, using his tools as weapons, was seen as equal to the American soldiers in the field.
