Recruitment Poster Help

[Stickfigure21]

Hello all,
Just looking for some more help on this rare poster I was able to purchase, linen back, and frame. I think it turned out wonderful but I can’t find any info on the artist or what year it was printed. I’ve attached pics of the poster itself along with the little markings in hope of tying it down to a year. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
All the best
-Steve

I don't recall seeing this one before but it is a great poster and undoubtedly an original.

Thank you for the kind words gentlemen! Yes it seems like this may be the only one left. I’ve searched high and low and have yet to find another example of one online.

Has anyone ever heard of the artist? Perhaps there is something to be found there?
