Over the Top: American Posters from World War I exhibition tour

Part one of a tour of the exhibition Over the Top: American Posters from World War I, on view at Norman Rockwell Museum from November 8, 2008 through January 25, 2009. Norman Rockwell Museum Chief Curator Stephanie Plunkett and associate registrar Rob Doane take a look at the stunning illustrated posters created during the first World War, which roused Americans to support their troops, fund international aid projects, and buy bonds to finance the war effort. Over the Top: American Posters from World War I has been organized by the Smithsonian American Art Museum, Washington, D. C., and is supported in part by the C. F. Foundation, Atlanta. The exhibition has been made possible at Norman Rockwell Museum by a generous grant from Thomas Leffingwell Pulling, Eileen K. S. Pulling, and Edward Leffingwell Pulling.
