World War I propaganda posters primarily promoted the war, recruited troops, and raised money for the war effort. With these aims, it is not surprising that they did not reflect many aspects of the war effort or many of the people involved. Using posters from the collections of the Hood Museum of Art, this exhibition examines several of the subjects ignored by these propaganda campaigns.
