Article title Historical Pictures in Nick Amster's Window


Uploaded with TurboUpload. "A number of historical pictures are being shown in the windows of Nick Amster's store. They are duplicates of pictures which are now hanging on the walls of practically every recreation center of the Y.M.C. A. or Knights of Columbus where ever any of our boys are located in camps and cantonments.

The pictures are small reproductions in color or originals which were painted for Hart Schaffner & Marx, and a new issue of them has been printed by that company chiefly as a contribution to make more attractive the canteens and recreation center for our boys.

The pictures show Francis Scott Key as a prisoner on board ship when he wrote "The Star Spangled Banner" Troops passing St. Gauden's Statue of Lincoln. Betsy Ross offering the first American Flag in its present form. Needless to say, the pictures are unusual interest at a time like this and Nick Amster, is to be congratulated on having them.
