A little to the left advises Carl Escene, on ground, as R. A. Boedecker mounts a War Chest poster on a street light near 747 Market Street in September of 1942. The two men are officers of Bill Posters and Billers Union No. 49. The union is volunteering labor to mount signs reminding that the War Chest fund raising campaign is coming in October. Automobiles on street and First Baptist Church in background. (T. Times 9/30/1942, pg. 11)
