1917 RED CROSS NURSE Recruitment ART POSTER Gift World War I

Product Description

The2FunAdGuyz offer a new, high-quality reproduction print of a superb 1917 Nurse Recruitment poster.

Artist Hayden Hayden created work that captures a special genre of World War I era posters—the Red Cross poster. At a time when much of the charity work done was by private individuals and charitable groups, The Red Cross stands as a shining example of selfless service. What is unusual about this work is that the artist, Hayden Hayden, was well known as a pin-up poster artist. This fact certainly shines through in this work, particularly the face, which has a very sensuous look. He has created a symbol of purity that also retains her attractiveness. Add in the patriotism of the flag and you have a powerful message.

In the sea of horror that was the World War I era, the nurse stands as an important symbol of what was still right with the world. This is truly a must-have collectible for any nurse and would make an ideal gift.
