and yet I sit at this place!
Prove yellow-faced enemies,

Another posters of the Russian-Japanese War, "Attack on Port Monet." Here Uncle Sam depicted in "cross-eyed warriors" unsuccessfully tried to get American support.

Cross-eyed warriors,
Bristling at Nagasaki,
Fighting is gathered,
Yes, money is not stocked ...

Yes I had to buy a scarf,
And to cover the chest and back,
And that can be blown,
When will flee! ..

Previously they friends everywhere
They promised a pile of money,
What you need - so shalish:
"Get shish-ka bro! ..»

Were Coy any pennies,
Yes I had to buy galoshes,
To not grab a cold,
If dirt foot step.

So the money is little,
Before reaching the Yalu,
They had squandered,
And there was no reserve ...

There are, say, "Uncle Sam»,
But he will not give the money himself,
And do warriors
On someone else's purse attacks ...



And this is 1917. The poster depicts fellow Democrats John and Uncle Sam. Fraternization allies had just entered the war against Germany, the United States welcomes the Interim Government headed by Russia.

That's it, ladies and gentlemen Democrats ...
