Volunteer for victory" calls on American women to offer their services to the Red Cross, and the record credits Toni Frissell, a photographer known for her fashion and wartime work, with the design. The poster dates from between 1941 and 1945, when the Red Cross relied heavily on unpaid women to staff hospitals, run canteens for servicemen, and help with blood donor drives at home. Its bold color and direct appeal show how wartime agencies used posters to bring ordinary citizens into the war effort.
