About the Item

During World War II there was a strong effort made by the United States Government to bolster the number of nurses serving in the military. As the war was being fought and soldiers were suffering increasing numbers of injuries the demand for nurses was on the rise. This is one of a number of recruitment posters for nurses issued by the Government. This is an Original Vintage Poster; it is not a reproduction. This poster is conservation mounted, linen backed, and in excellent condition. We guarantee the authenticity of all of our posters.
