Description

"A Masterpiece of Graphic Design" (Hornsby)

A striking example of Ernest Dudley Chase's rare tribute to the American Armed Forces at a pivotal moment in the History of World War II.

Chase utilizes Japan’s Rising Sun motif as the anchor to this evocative pictorial map of American warplanes attacking Japan from all points of the compass.

The verso image, Pacific Battle Map, was first issued by Ernest Dudley Chase in 1942 in black and his here re-issued in red, with the copyright 1944.

Two of Chase's rarest maps on a single sheet.

Reference
Hornsby, Picturing America, Plate 138.

(Second World War) We have just begun to fight!

This propaganda poster from World War II, created by the United States Office of War Information, captures the determination of the American military effort with the rallying cry "We have just begun to fight!" The vivid illustration of a soldier in the throes of battle, next to the names of pivotal battles and campaigns such as Pearl Harbor, Bataan, and Midway, evokes the critical junctures in the Pacific Theater and elsewhere that galvanized the United States into action.
