Forward America!" is a color lithograph poster by Carroll Kelly, dated around 1917, the year the United States entered the First World War. Its direct, urgent title reflects the wartime effort to rally citizens behind the nation's cause. Posters like this were printed in large runs and displayed in shop windows, post offices and public buildings, where they needed simple imagery and a short slogan to catch a passerby's eye. The record credits Wright Henry Worth Inc, a reminder of how commercial printing was put to work for national campaigns during the war.
