Product Description

The2FunAdGuyz offer a new print of an incredible 1918 World War I recruitment poster for the Overseas Irish Canadian Rangers, or the 199th as it was designated.



A silhouetted soldier is shown standing on a cliff, waving to departing vessels. Next to the soldier a Canadian flag waves and beneath the flag is the insignia of the 199th , including a shamrock and their motto, “Quis Separabit”. This Latin motto translates “Who shall separate us?”

HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE: Of course the troubles in Ireland influenced what happened in Canada, but in general this unit contained both Green and Orange recruits and even had two chaplains, one Catholic and the other Methodist.

HEADLINE: “WE GO NEXT!”

CAPTION: “Be one of the Irish Canadian Rangers Overseas Battalion Under Lt. Col. H. J. Trihey. Headquarters, 91 Stanley St., Montreal.”

ORIGINAL MEDIA: Montreal Lithograph Co. Ltd., Montreal, did the original lithograph that served as the basis of this new print.

PAPER QUALITY: This new print is on a highest quality, acid-free, 100-pound glossy premium text paper that allows for maximum color brilliance and fidelity for older images.
