The "Remember the Lusitania" Retro Poster, created during World War I, commemorates the tragic sinking of the RMS Lusitania by a German submarine in 1915. The poster aimed to evoke public outrage and garner support for the war effort by highlighting the civilian casualties, including American lives lost. Its poignant message underscored the brutality of unrestricted submarine warfare and played a role in swaying public opinion towards entering the conflict, contributing to the United States' eventual involvement in World War I.
