Here is a large cardboard window poster (14" x 19") - NAVMC 7165 PCN 103-012065-00. I believe this is from 1971 as then is when the Marines started using the "Looking for a few good men" slogan (if my memory is correct). This was part of the series that featured the famous "We don't promise you a rose garden" with DI Sgt Chuck Taliano, unfortunately I wasn't able to snag that one. In due time!

[SgtMaddoxUSMC]

Here is the next one in the series: NAVMC 7166 PCN 103-012066-00.

[SgtMaddoxUSMC]

Here is what I think is called a Trolley window poster (someone verify?) that I have seen dated on another website as WWI timeframe, 1914-1918. Anymore information on this would awesome!

[SgtMaddoxUSMC]

Here is another similar sized poster as the one in the last post, this one is from the U.S. Pictorial Service, also from WWI. Shows the "Devil Dog of America and the Blue Devil of France".
