EDITORS COMMENTS
This recruitment poster from 1862 showcases the Corcoran Legion, a Union Army legion during the American Civil War. The poster, printed on paper and now part of a private collection, was created by the American School in the 19th century. Led by Irish immigrant Michael Corcoran, who became a war hero among his fellow Irish immigrants, this legion managed to recruit many Irishmen to fight for the Union cause. The bill specifically targets young men with its enticing message: "a splendid opportunity for young men to join a Crack Regiment". It highlights the fifth regiment of the Corcoran Legion, which eventually became known as the 155th Regiment of New York Infantry. This advertisement serves as an important historical artifact that sheds light on recruitment strategies employed during this tumultuous time in American history. The vibrant colors and intricate details of this print draw viewers into a world where patriotism and duty collide. It symbolizes not only military might but also represents hope and unity amidst chaos. With Staten Island serving as its backdrop, this image captures both local pride and national fervor. As we gaze upon this piece from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection today, it reminds us of America's rich heritage and those who bravely fought for their beliefs. It stands as a testament to the power of art in preserving history and igniting our imagination about past events that shaped our present reality.
