Description | Poster showing Uncle Sam and Father Knickerbocker greeting a Bersagliere in a plumed hat; all three men bear rifles and swords. In the background, an American and Italian flag are crossed, with a flag similar to New York City's displaying between them. Possibly the city's tercentennary flag because it has the dates 1614 to1914 on it. (Note: The inner band of the flag was incorrectly colored black instead of red. It's intended to be the Italian flag, both because of the arms in the white pale and the context of the poster. Source: Peter Ansoff and David Martucci, 2012) |
