Now All Together/Iwo Jima Canvas Print

  • Made in the U.S.A.
  • 11 X 14 inches
  • Artist C.C. Beall (1892-1967)

  • Artist Beall based the image of this World War II war loan poster on the famous Joe Rosenthal photograph of the second American flag being raised on Iwo Jima. This poster was part of the campaign for a seventh war loan subscription, which took place in May 1945, just days after victory in Europe. Officials were concerned that the defeat of Germany might lessen bond sales. The slogan on the poster, "Now All Together," and the Iwo Jima images were meant to appeal to the spirit of collective patriotism and bolster bond sales. As it happened, the seventh war loan surpassed all expectations, raising over $156 billion.

    We are pleased to offer this design as a canvas print, perfectly sized for home or office.

  • During World War I, many branches of the federal government used posters to urge Americans to support the war effort. In a time without radio, TV, or the Internet, posters were an inexpensive way to deliver powerful messages to millions of people. The government hired well-known artists to create designs that unified the American people. Posters continued to be published during World War II, and new posters are still in production. The National Archives holds close to 20,000 posters produced by military and civilian agencies.

Great American Art.

My Father was on Iwo Jima and I am also a Veteran who lived in Japan as a part of the American Occupation Force.. I own an original Joe Rosenthal copy of the original image. So I take these matters seriously. This is an amazing and wonderful likeness of a place where many American and Japanese died in the name of Freedom. Iwo Jima was the first piece of Japanese property to fall to the US. Over 22,000 soldiers died in the Invasion. The image represents an important piece of history and I find it a wonderful opportunity to add it to my collection of art.
