One Sheet, This is a vintage French recruitment poster for the
Troupes Coloniales, or French Colonial Troops. The poster was created by an artist named Sogno, likely Jacques Sogno-Bezza, in the 1940s.
The French text on the poster, "Engagez-vous, Rengagez-vous dans les Troupes Coloniales," translates to "Enlist, reenlist in the Colonial Troops". The Troupes coloniales were the military forces of the French colonial empire from 1900 until 1961. The poster depicts what appears to be French soldiers and indigenous troops in a tropical, jungle setting. |
