French Conserve Bread Eat Potatoes Poster World War I Print WW1 WWI

The2FunAdGuyz offer a large, new, high quality reproduction print of a poignant, charming 1916 French poster print that is one of a series done by the school children of France exhorting the French people to conserve food and drink so they could be sent to the French soldiers serving at the front.

In stark, simple country-like style, the young artist shows a table with cloth on which rests a huge plate of steaming potatoes. A fork is already stuck in a potato and a knife is at the waiting. Who could possibly need anything else?
