Description
English: Poster for the Canadian Forestry Battalion. "Bushmen and sawmill hands wanted". Ottawa, Canada. The war effort desperately needed timber for a variety of uses, including the building of bomb-proof dugouts in the trenches and timber ties for the rail lines that transported train-loads of supplies. During World War I, 22,000 members of the Canadian Forestry Corps were turning trees into timber for the Allied war effort. Most of the men were older than the C.E.F. average and had been turned down for service, but could use their special skills through the Canadian Forestry Corps.
Français : Affiche - «Bûcherons et ouvriers de scieries demandés». Ottawa (Canada). 22 000 membres du Corps forestier canadien travaillent à transformer les arbres en bois d'oeuvre pour l'effort de guerre allié.

This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.


Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
Public domain
This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

Public domain works must be out of copyright in both the United States and in the source country of the work in order to be hosted on the Commons. If the work is not a U.S. work, the file must have an additional copyright tag indicating the copyright status in the source country.
