About the Item
The Jewish Welfare Board. Original World 1 vintage poster, excellent condition; archival linen backed and ready to frame. Printer: Alco-Gravure, Inc., N. Y.
Civilians: When we go through this we need all the help and comfort you can give. This poster supported the Jewish Welfare Board and sports the Star of David to the left of the center. The National Jewish Welfare Board is now better known as the Jewish Community Centers Association. More than 250,000 Jews served in the armed forces in WW1. Approx. 3,500 were killed and more than 12,000 wounded. The NJWB helped enlist & raise funds.
The National Jewish Welfare Board, founded on April 9, 1917, played a central role in providing for both the spiritual and material needs of Jewish troops in World War I. Later renamed the Jewish Welfare Board, this organization trained both rabbis and lay leaders to serve as aids for the Jewish military. The Jewish Welfare Board supplied soldiers with kosher food, Passover meals, holiday services, and trans-denominational prayer books. Important Jewish leaders such as Dr. Cyrus Adler expedited these efforts. The Jewish Welfare Board also organized secular activities for the soldiers. By 1918, the Board extended its effort to the Jewish troops overseas.
This classic poster shows a soldier who implores civilians to help with the war.
This is an original 1942 vintage poster, it is NOT a reproduction.

Sidney Riesenberg
Sidney Riesenberg, an accomplished landscape painter but best known as an illustrator, was born in Chicago in 1885. He received his formal education at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, where he won several purchase prize awards. By 1905, he moved to Yonkers, New York for his career and contributed illustrations to journals such as Harper's, Scribner's, Collier's and The Saturday Evening Post and produced many posters for the Marines and Liberty Loan campaigns. From 1905–09, Riesenberg made two trips to the West and often created western subjects such as book illustrations for, With Whip and Spur and Pioneers All. Throughout the 1930s and 1940s, he exhibited his easel work at the National Academy of Design, The New York Watercolor Club, the Allied Artists of America, The Yonkers Art Association, and the Rockport Art Association. Riesenberg was often influenced by Impressionism and Plein-air painting. Evidence of his background as an illustrator is seen in his paintings by his use of modern color theory, unique brushstrokes, and attention to structure and design.
