An illustration entitled "Team Work for Uncle Sam" that was published by the Suffrage Referendum League of Maine in 1917 depicts women's war contributions at home and the soldier's contributions at the front.

The group was promoting a referendum to change Maine's constitution to allow women in the state to vote.

The artist is William Ourcadie, pseudonym for Frederic W. Freeman.
