World War I Red Cross Nurse Recruitment Gift Poster Haskell Coffin

Product Description

The2FunAdGuyz offer a new print of a powerful, yet simple, 1918 World War I Red Cross Nurse Recruitment Poster by popular artist Haskell Coffin that will make a great gift for a nurse’s graduation day or National Nurses Day.

HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE: During World War I many of the medical services for Allied soldiers were provided by the American Red Cross and the nurses who volunteered for service. The challenge of helping wounded military personnel involved in trench and gas warfare was met by thousands of truly heroic American women. To recruit these nurses many of America’s most talented artists, known for creating portraits of young women, created beautiful posters that both recruited, but also romanticized, these young heroines. This poster is a prime example of this genre.

DESCRIPTION: An attractive young nurse, with arms outstretched, beckoning every nurse to accept the challenge to serve, dominates the presentation.

HEADLINE: THIRD RED CROSS ROLL CALL

ARTIST: Haskell Coffin created this poster in 1918. Coffin was a very famous illustrator—specializing in beautiful young women. His work was featured on covers of major magazines of the period and most of his work emphasized wealthy young women, many times with their pets.

DECORATING USES: Many of our customers find this poster useful for home and office decorating, or to be displayed wherever women are working—which these days, thanks in part to Rosie, is everywhere.

PAPER QUALITY: This new print is on a highest quality, acid-free, 100-pound glossy premium text paper that allows for maximum color brilliance and fidelity for older images.
