    The Draft is Inevitable: A Call to Join Duryea's Zouaves.

    This poster is a high-quality reproduction of a vibrant and historically fascinating Civil War recruitment poster, originally printed by the famed New York City firm of Baker & Godwin. The design is a classic example of their work, with a dynamic, circular composition of text and stars in patriotic red, white, and blue.

    Unlike purely patriotic appeals, this poster uses a more pragmatic and urgent tactic. It warns potential recruits that "THE DRAFT IS INEVITABLE. IT CAN'T BE SHIRKED," encouraging them to enlist voluntarily with the famed Duryea's Zouaves and collect the massive $235 in bounties before they are conscripted. It’s a complete historical document, right down to the 19th Ward Brooklyn recruiting headquarters at Bedford Ave. and Clymer St. A perfect piece for any Civil War historian or anyone with roots in Brooklyn.
