Original Vintage Poster Red Cross Workers WWII by Whitman 1943

This product data sheet is originally written in English.


The Red Cross was a critical part of each of America's World Wars. During the war years, female Red Cross volunteers provided critical services in field hospitals and evacuation hospitals, on hospital trains and ships, and as flight nurses on medical transport planes. Red Cross nurses saw equal amounts (if not more) war atrocities than some of the men fighting did. The Red Cross needed all the financial help it could get from stateside civilians to help mend injured soldiers on the bloody battlefields. President Roosevelt called The Red Cross' work at this time the "greatest single crusade of mercy in all of history."

John Whitman, Jr. (1896-1967) was an American illustrator who also served as a corporal in the Army during WWII. His commercial illustration background is extremely noticeable in the several posters he designed for the war effort.
