Sign is printed on an 11'' x 14'' piece of foamcore; attached to the back are two wedge-shaped pieces of foamcore that keep the sign standing up and tilted back at a slight angle. The text, printed in red and blue letters, reads "MINUTEMAN Civil Defense Corps NEEDS YOU NOW To Help Save Our Country / Join Now". In the background is a faded image of Uncle Sam pointing in the style of the famous "I Want You for U.S. Army" poster. Behind Uncle Sam is a partial American flag.
