The Good Story,after a well known painting,World War I,WWI,Leo Hermann,c1918

Title: The Good Story, after a well known painting
Creator(s): Berryman, Clifford Kennedy, 1869-1949, artist
Date Created/Published: [1917 or 1918]
Summary: World War I cartoon shows the German Kaiser Wilhem and a soldier roaring with laughter over the information in a 'Zeitung.' It reads 'Uncle Sam's 'Army' will be needed at home on account of political conditions. He can only send 500,000 men over seas at most.' The cartoon is a caricature of a popular painting by German genre painter Leo Hermann. German leaders were convinced that the Americans would not be able to contribute enough troops to influence the outcome of the war. By the time the war ended, however, more than two million Americans had arrived in Europe, more than the entire British army on the Continent.
