12inch x 18inch Poster World War 1 propaganda poster. England and France are defined as ?civilization,? and Germany shown as a ?mad brute? ? here, a giant, drooling gorilla weilding the club of German kultur (culture) and carrying the limp, half-naked body of a woman. As a result of propaganda like this, German Americans ? many of whose ancestors had lived in America for centuries ? faced persecution during the war. The ape wears a German soldiers helmet and plants his feet on American soil. There is a border around the image. The image size is correct.
