All together!" is the phrase that sets this color lithograph apart from other Navy recruiting posters of the period, asking viewers to join as a group rather than as lone individuals. It dates to 1917, the year the United States entered the First World War, when the Navy was growing quickly and relied on posters like this one to draw sailors into its ranks. Posters of this era were printed in large runs and displayed in post offices, storefronts and train stations. Note the bold color and direct call to action, meant to be read at a glance from across a street.
