No, seriously.
Does anyone know where the pork chop propaganda is? That will be fab for my kitchen. I've got good Soviet stuff for my bathroom (It's all red and orange), and I'm going to do some US/UK ones for my living room.

If anyone sees any American originals kicking around, let me know, and I'll buy them. I'm finding a lot of Soviet.
I don't want Nazi stuff, but holeeee shite.

This sounds like an excellent opportunity to utilize Dr. Seuss Goes to War. (http://www.amazon.com/Dr-Seuss-Goes-War-Editorial/dp/156584565X)

If it was readable at such a small size, that would be my new avatar.
Originals I don't have a clue about, but I know a guy who does the occasional high res restoration of recruitment posters. Now that I look at it, most of it is WWI, don't know if that's any good to you.

These are fantastic. I've been able to see some WWI stuff in person that my former housemate was scanning for giclee, but I don't think I could afford them.
Wow, he did a beautiful job restoring these.
He may have some other stuff in wikicommons. He's been putting restorations there longer, but the war stuff is more recent.

It's been pointed out to me that the download links on that deviantart page are much higher res and usually print shop quality, example:

Yeah I noticed. I'm going home to print some of these out. Just need to hit a dollar store for cheap frames.

No knockoffs allowed.
I'm asserting my stuffy historian side and ousting my nerdy side so I can hang violent, communist, fascist, and borderline racist artwork on my walls that's almost a century old.
