1920's Russian propaganda poster. It is a two-color lithograph, 70x106 cm, by Dmitry Stakhievich Moor (1883-1946).

Moor was a very prolific poster designer and satirical artist. Contributor to Pravda, Izvestija, and satirical magazines such as Krokodil. Known for his ability to combine humor and satire with monumental compositions. Teacher at Vchutemas, 1922-1930. More of Moor's work can be seen here: [1].


"Have You Volunteered" is noteworthy, as it served as the template for Shepard Fairey's 1997 work Join the Posse.
