UVF - Ulster Volunteer Force Poster
Notice posted by the Ulster Volunteer Force intending to quell speculation that its founding was a direct violent challenge to those of differing views within Ulster, instead stressing that its formation was solely to put pressure on the Government and its policies. The Ulster Volunteers were a unionist militia founded in 1912 to block Home Rule for Ireland. In 1913 they were organised into the Ulster Volunteer Force, with many of its members enlisting with the 36th (Ulster) Division at the outbreak of World War I.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This historic poster, dating back to circa 1913, was issued by the Ulster Volunteer Force (UVF) to address rumors circulating within Ulster and beyond, regarding the true intentions of the organisation. The UVF, a unionist militia, was formed in 1912 to put pressure on the British Government and its policies regarding Home Rule for Ireland. Contrary to speculation, the UVF's founding was not a direct violent challenge to those of differing views. The text on the poster reads, "To all good Unionists: There is no cause for alarm. The Ulster Volunteers are not organised for any other purpose than to uphold the constitutional position of Ulster within the United Kingdom and to resist by peaceful means any attempt to impose Home Rule upon us." As tensions continued to rise, the UVF was reorganised into the Ulster Volunteer Force in 1913, with many of its members enlisting with the 36th (Ulster) Division at the outbreak of World War I. This poster serves as a reminder of the complex political climate in Northern Ireland during this period and the efforts made to quell rumors and maintain the peace. The UVF's stance on using peaceful means to resist Home Rule contrasted with the more militant actions taken by some unionist groups, highlighting the nuanced nature of the political situation in Ulster at the time.
