Fire! Grab the hoses! Aim, and blast the water! Auxiliary Fire Training was an important part of military training. This is one powerful piece of original artwork from the Uncle Sam World War II military series produced by GUM of Philadelphia. All these military training maneuvers were part of a successful series of gum cards. This one is the original 7 1/2 x 9” (approx) art board consisting of the black ink drawing as well as the color overlay that was used to print the Uncle Sam Card #98. The adhesive and other art and pencil markers used in the production of the card can be seen on the back and front. The pride of the American military never looked better than with these original GUM pieces. You’ll be proud to own and salute their contribution with this impressive and original piece. Ready for framing.
