R. F. BABCOCK JOIN THE NAVY.

Circa 1917. 41x28 inches. Condition B: repaired tears, restoration and overpainting in margins and corners; wrinkles in image. Replete with masculinity and adventure, a sailor in blue is riding bareback on an orange torpedo in green water; lettering in red and blue. This is an image that may have inspired the final scene of Stanley Kubrick's Dr. Strangelove. Rawls 72, Navy 15, Th.
