Description
Óglaigh na hÉireann Irish Army Recruitment Poster. Looking for unmarried men of good character, age 18 - 28.
'Óglaigh na hÉireann' is an Irish language idiom that can be translated variously as Soldiers of Ireland, Warriors of Ireland, Volunteers of Ireland or Irish Volunteers. The phrase Óglaigh na hÉireann was coined as an Irish language title for the Irish Volunteers of 1913 and was retained when the Volunteers became known in English as the Irish Republican Army (IRA) during the War of Independence 1919–1922. Óglaigh na hÉireann is now the name of the Irish Defence Forces.
We are delighted to present these fascinating rarities of old Ireland for you to own. We have added a 'aged look' to this print which creates a stunning atmosphere when framed.
We look forward to helping you create your own collection that can be treasured and admired by your family for many generations to come!
