Maybe out of place in this forum, but will share by starting here. Just found it in the shop around the corner and thought it would be great with the collection. 1919 Dated in original frame, but can't find anything out about it.

Thanks for looking!

Nice drawing!

From the info provided in the drawing: Meuse - Argonne Offensive, an Allied offensive in the Argonne Forest and along the Meuse River. (September - October 1918).

A.E.F. = American Expeditionary Force, a U.S. artillery battery (XXXXX? Battery F?, can't read it).

Apparently this is one of six prints ? http://www.ebay.com/itm/ORIGINAL-CO...MITH-PRINTS-OF-WW-II-DATED-1918-/331428133585
I could not find much more about the illustrator Roger McElhone Smith.

Very neat! Wish I'd found the rest, I paid $6 for it framed, so guess that's not too bad. Would be great to have the whole set though!
