Children were a large part of the homefront effort in America during WWII. Over 18 million schoolchildren volunteered with the American Junior Red Cross during the War, and this poster shows a sampling of them collecting items to donate to programs overseas. Games, clothing, blankets, even a lamp are being offered here to help rebuild the lives of the many refugees in liberated parts of Europe.
Al Parker (1906-1985) was an American artist most well known for his literary and commercial magazine cover designs. His style embraced modern glamor and he was an integral part of important artists communities in New Rochelle, NY and Westport, CT. His most famous work was the 'Mother, Daughter' series of covers for Ladies' Home Journal, which ran from 1939 through the early 1950s.

What People Are Saying...

If there's anything you want to know about posters, vintage or more modern, there's nothing Mr Ross doesn't know. His open and friendly manner helps one to choose the most suitable material whether for decoration, investment or whatever... I can't recommend him highly enough.

Just wanted to say thanks for the poster. You sent it on Thursday and it was delivered the following Monday (nearly quicker than it took us to get home) to our house in Perth, Australia. We have just had it framed. We love it; it goes perfectly with the room.

The Ross Gallery has the best selection of vintage posters I have ever seen. Seriously, if you are in the market, they are the people. And, they know everything there is to know about the posters' provenance.
