"Off The Golden Gate" is a 1918 propaganda poster created by American artist Harry Ryle Hopps. Designed during World War I, the poster was part of the United States government's efforts to raise public awareness about the dangers of German U-boats and to encourage support for the war effort. The poster is notable for its dramatic imagery, which depicts a U-boat sinking a ship near the Golden Gate, a strait that connects San Francisco Bay to the Pacific Ocean. The image serves as a stark reminder of the threat posed by German submarines to American shipping and the importance of maritime security.

The poster is characterized by its bold composition and use of color, with the sinking ship and the submarine being central elements that capture the viewer's attention. The Golden Gate is symbolically represented, not only as a geographical landmark but also as a metaphor for America's gateway to the Pacific and the need to protect its shores. Harry Ryle Hopps, an illustrator and poster artist, was known for his ability to convey powerful messages through his artwork, and "Off The Golden Gate" stands as a prime example of his skill in visual communication during a time of conflict.

As a piece of historical propaganda, "Off The Golden Gate" provides insight into the methods used by the U.S. government to influence public opinion and rally support for the war. It also reflects the broader artistic movement of the time, where art was employed as a tool for political and social influence. Today, the poster is not only a collectible item for those interested in wartime memorabilia but also an important artifact for the study of American propaganda, visual culture, and the role of art in shaping national identity during World War I.
