Description: Photomechanical print from a poster titled "WAKE UP AMERICA!" showing the U.S. Navy recruiting station at the United Cigar Stores Company in the Flatiron Building in New York City on 1917-04-19, the day of the "Wake up America" parade. The handwritten inscription in the lower left reads "Wake up America Day Parade Apr. 19, 1917 / United Cigar Stores Co. Flatiron Bldg. New York City". The store's cowcatcher was transformed into a mock fort for the parade. The Library of Congress archival photograph of the poster was cropped to include only the contained photograph.
