Original Item: Only One Available. During WWII, women made contributions to the war effort through various avenues including the medical field. Through organizations such as the American Red Cross (ARC), many women volunteered as nurses or nurse aides. Through the Volunteer Nurses Aides Corps, women provided aid to overworked nurses. Women also provided medical aid through different means like through the ARC Motor Corps. This was a program, predominantly comprised of women, where volunteers transported supplies, injured personnel, and even other volunteers to other hospitals.

The poster shows an image of a Red Cross Nurses Aide from the shoulders up, looking off into the distance. The header has the typical organizational address at the top as RED CROSS VOLUNTEER NURSES AIDE. The bottom reads as:

The poster is in overall lovely condition with minimal wear present and no extensive damage. This is a poster that was well cared for. All colors are still vibrant and easily discernible.

A lovely example that comes more than ready for further research and display.
