Missouri Over There is set to digitize a collection of World War I posters from
Truman State University for this year’s round of digitizing. The posters include a variety of propaganda material issued throughout Missouri during the war. These artfully crafted posters were distributed throughout the state to help garner recruits for the Navy and Marines, raise money for the war effort, and sustain public moral. The images below represent a portion of the collection, the rest of which is slated for digitization this year.
