Lot 1895-3:  “A Poster Comes to Life”.   This photograph, one is series, shows Sergeant French L. Vineyard, USA; George Woolslayer, welder;  and Aviation Radio Chief John Marshall Evans, USN, at the Allegheny-Ludlum Steel Mill, Brackenridge, Pennsylvania, during the process of the creation of a WWII poster that they posed for. Note Chief Evans wore an E-6 and below uniform due to the poster image.  Shown:  “Blown Up,” almost to life size, photographs of the soldier, welder, and sailor are pasted on cardboard.  The poster of “Men Working Together” which actually brought these three men – typical of their specific groups – together, thus begins to take shape.  Photographed by Alfred T. Palmer, August 1942.
