In the 1920s, there was a plethora of publications in the United Kingdom and the United States which aimed to teach students about important historical figures and periods.
This set of 5 small posters includes:
Julius Caesar (Gaius Julius Caesar, better known by his nomen gentilicium and cognomen Julius Caesar, was a Roman statesman and military general who played a critical role in the events that led to the demise of the Roman Republic and the rise of the Roman Empire. He was also a historian and author of Latin prose.)
Captain Cook (James Cook FRS was a British explorer, navigator, cartographer, and captain in the British Royal Navy.)
Harold (Harold Godwinson, often called Harold II, was the last crowned Anglo-Saxon king of England. Harold reigned from 6 January 1066 until his death at the Battle of Hastings, fighting the Norman invaders led by William the Conqueror during the Norman conquest of England.)
Captain Scott (Robert Falcon Scott CVO was a Royal Navy officer and explorer who led two expeditions to the Antarctic regions: the Discovery expedition of 1901–1904 and the ill-fated Terra Nova expedition of 1910–1913.)
