Four Freedoms Large Poster Suite
Norman Rockwell
Four Freedoms Large Vintage Poster Suite

1943. Norman Rockwell, illustrator. Extremely rare. Perhaps the most iconic, popular-then and memorable-now World War II posters is the quartet of American posters the illustrator Norman Rockwell painted celebrating the American way of life. These four posters are based on President Franklin Roosevelt's 1941 State of the Union speech which identified four indispensable human rights which should be universally protected and serve as a backdrop for American policy to become more involved in the deepening world discord which was mounting in Europe and Asia. Pearl Harbor was less than a year away.

Freedom of Speech, Freedom of Worship, Freedom From Want and Freedom From Fear were the topics of these four paintings which originally were reproduced in 1943 over four consecutive weeks in The Saturday Evening Post as illustrations accompanying essays by prominent thinkers of the day. Soon the original paintings were the focal point of a fund-raising touring exhibition sponsored by the Saturday Evening Post and the Department of the Treasury which raised over $132 million in the sale of war bonds before it was over. They probably are the most widely distributed paintings ever produced.

When posters were made of this artwork, three different sizes were produced. Most popular was the small 28 x 20 size while a 40 x 28 size was useful for larger displays. A limited number of a large 56 x 40 version of the Four Freedoms were also printed. These posters are approximately the same size as the original Rockwell paintings. This is the size of the extraordinary suite we offer. Not only are these pieces quite rare, but having a complete set is highly unusual. In addition, each of the four posters is professionally backed, cleaned and minimally restored to its original mint condition. A great set for a patriotic display. Sold as a suite.

56x40 Paper. Backed with Japanese rice paper. Lightly restored to near mint condition.
Inquire for price.

A second set of four unrestored and unbacked Rockwell "Four Freedoms" 56 x 40 posters is available at a reduced price. Good+ condition, flat rolled with previous fold marks.

Inquire for prices.
