'Join the Royal Armoured Corps', 1941

Chromolithograph recruiting poster, after Abram Games (1914-1996), printed by Lowe and Brydone Printers Limited, published by Her Majesty's Stationary Office, London, 1941.

The Royal Armoured Corps (RAC) was formed on 4 April 1939, just months before the outbreak of World War Two. The new corps served as an umbrella for a large number of existing armoured and mechanised regiments, each of which also retained its individual regimental identity.

From a collection of 45 posters from World War Two (1939-1945).
