C. C. Beall[edit]
1945 Treasury poster
- ... that C. C. Beall's 1945 Treasury poster (pictured) of Joe Rosenthal's photograph of the raising of the American flag on Iwo Jima was used for a World War II campaign which brought in $26 billion?

Nice artcile, long enough and posted by due date. Hook is interesting though the figures could also be mentioned as billions. Hook is cited and verified. No copy vio noted and text is neutral. Img is free. Good to go.Nvvchar. 02:06, 5 February 2016 (UTC)- Comment to Promoter - can this be first in the queue with picture. I believe it would get a lot of views. Thanks.--Doug Coldwell (talk) 20:49, 5 February 2016 (UTC)
