American Red Cross poster from the 1920's. Artist Anna Milo Upjohn illustrates a nurse in a Red Cross cape and hat selling the charity's course in ''Home Hygiene & Care of the Sick''. Copy reads: ''Do You Know How To - Give a bath to a patient in bed? / Make a bed with a helpless patient in it? / Bathe a baby? / Elevate the bed, and why? / Take temperature and pulse? / Protect your family from preventable disease? And stay well? If not - learn now / Register at your American Red Cross local chapter for the course in Home Hygiene and Care of the Sick''. The European-trained artist volunteered for the WWI refugee relief effort before being selected to illustrate for the Red Cross. Paper poster measures 21'' x 28''.
