Description

90th Pennsylvania Volunteers Recruitment Broadside, approximately 32" x 22.5", red and blue inks in partnership with bold graphics effectively convey a sense of patriotic urgency. The whole is dominated by a wild-eyed infantryman breaching rebel defenses. Although no state affiliation is mentioned, the poster can be attributed to Pennsylvania because the regiment's colonel is named in the lower register of type. Lightly toned paper with some soiling, repaired splits. A highly attractive example of military advertising behind archival mat in custom frame. The 90th Pennsylvania was organized on October 1, 1861 and spent nearly three years in the field. The regiment was engaged in all of the major battles fought by the Army of the Potomac from Antietam through Petersburg.
