Title: Fighting in France for freedom! Are you helping at home?
Date Created/Published: New Haven, Conn. : Illustrated Current News, [1918]
Summary: Poster showing British soldiers conducting exercises while wearing gas masks.
Notes:
Text continues: Uncle Sam wants fruit pits and nut shells. They're needed to supply carbon for Gas Masks, and its up to you to save them. To do so will cost you nothing but a little effort. The result will be a saving of soldiers' lives. Any Red Cross Chapter will receive these contributions to victory.
Caption: Group of British soldiers going through military drill with gas masks attached. When the Germans launched their murderous gas attacks they counted on a master stroke and the casualties were heavy. But the Allies soon began the manufacture of gas-masks which stopped the effect of gas attacks. The government wishes everybody to save fruit pits and nut shells to supply carbon for gas-masks.
