One of the most recognizable U.S. military posters ever published, Flagg’s “Uncle Sam” was used for recruitment during World War I and World War II. In lieu of hiring a model, Flagg used his own face as the inspiration for Uncle Sam’s which earned praise for resourcefulness from President Franklin Delano Roosevelt.
