The title, *Emblemas de la libertad y de la humanidad*, is printed in Spanish, and it calls the Red Cross "Madre de todas las naciones," or mother of all nations. The catalog subjects pair the American flag with the Bolivian flag and list nurses, which suggests the poster was meant to reach audiences in Latin America as well as at home. The American Red Cross ran large relief and nursing efforts during the First World War, and promotional material like this, dated somewhere between 1914 and 1918, helped build public support for them. The record does not name an artist or printer, so the poster's exact origin remains uncertain.
