A joined emblem of France and Great Britain is the subject of this 1917 color lithograph, a design meant to show the two Allied nations standing together. It was printed in New York by M. Rusling Wood, and its copyright belongs to a committee of citizens, which suggests it came from a private group rather than a government agency. The poster appeared in the months after the United States entered the First World War in April 1917, when American groups were working to build public support for the Allies.
