This hand painted World War One recruitment poster is part of the collections at Bury Art Museum. It was destined to be posted around the town of Bury to encourage young men to sign up to the 'Comrades' Battery of Artillery for Bury and Rochdale, luckily or whatever reason it wasn't posted on a billboard and so survived. || Recruitment Poster || || Recruitment and Conscription || Official document || 53.5949619,-2.297221400000012 || This World War One recruitment poster is part of the collections at Bury Art Museum.

A small, damaged photograph from my own family's archives. Unfortunately we don't recognise any one or the location. It depicts a group of soldiers and a civilian standing outside a town's recruitment office. On the board outside is a notice saying Men wanted for Coldstream Guards, Royal Regiment of Artillery, Field Garrison, Tank Corps, Royal Engineers plus other writing that is indecipherable. A variety of height restrictions are also given. || || Men outside recruitment office || Photograph
