An original rare American military poster. I'm Counting On You!, the 1943 U.S. World War II (WWII) Home Front intelligence poster ("I'm counting on you!"; "Don't Discuss: Troop Movements Ship Sailings - War Equipment") featuring artwork of Uncle Sam with a finger to his lips by L. Helguerou! Uncle Sam is an iconic figure in American political posters. I'm Counting On You created in 1943 by Leon Helguera (1899-1970),builds on this well established imagery made famous by James Montgomery Flagg's 1917 "I Want You" recruitment poster. Here, Uncle Sam signals to the viewer to refrain from discussing information about their loved ones serving at home or abroad for fear of espionage. The image is one of many created during World War II to promote the war effort, that centered on the theme of "Careless Talk" in the face of home-front espionage.
