About
This poster by artist Charles Buckles Falls depicts a soldier in uniform holding a stack of books so large that it looms over his head, making it the same height as the bayonet he carries over his shoulder. The implication here is that books are important tools for a soldier on the front, as essential as his pack and his weapon. On the right side of the poster, just beneath the stack of books, are the words “Books wanted for our men in camp and over there; take your gifts to the public library,” encouraging the viewer to participate in a library book drive.
