Famous poster poser dies in California. August 11, 1972." Caption: "Striking his Uncle Sam Pose. In 1938, artist James Montgomery Flagg was drawing an Army recruiting poster, and he asked Walter Botts, a musician, to pose as Uncle Sam. 'What do you want to do with your hands?' asked Flagg. 'Why don't I point my finger like this and say, 'I Want You?' Botts suggested, cupping his lips as he pronounced 'you.' 'No. Frown,' said Flagg. The result was the familiar poster that invited young men into the Army during World War II and for years afterwards. Visiting Atlanta for the grand opening of Uncle Sam's Newsroom Restaurant and Lounge, Botts, now 71, struck that famous pose again Thursday. Staff Photo Bill Grimes.
