    Description

    Original circa 1917 produced World War I poster by the title 'Patience!, Confiance!, Silence!'.
    The poster was printed by Lapina of Paris, France utilizing the color lithographic process from artwork done by Jean-Jacques Waltz (L'Oncle Hansi) of France.
    Approximate poster dimensions are 20"h x 15"w.
    The appearance of the poster is in fine over-all condition. The colors in the poster have been well preserved and are fresh in appearance due to having been rolled up for many years.
    Condition issues include some discoloration on the border, pinholes on the corners and a 4" edge tear from the edge of the border heading into the image.
    This poster is an original World War I poster of the period and is not a later copy, is not a re-issue and is not a reproduction.  This poster has never been offered for sale before this time having been part of a collection put together quite a long time ago.
    This poster is in the condition as it was found unmounted and unbacked having been stored away for many years.  I have not repaired, restored or tampered with the poster in any way.
    On some computer monitors the images seen in the listing may appear to show the colors of the poster to be muted or there may be a shine seen which is a reflection from either the camera flash or light but in actuality the colors of the poster are of even tonality.
    For ultimate protection a preservation sheet of transparent neutral ph glassine will be rolled together with the poster, placed within a wrapped plastic bag for extra protection and sent within a high quality exceptionally durable Yazoo Mills shipping tube.  Please be assured that I package as carefully and securely as possible so that you will receive the poster in the condition as described in the listing.
