‎Women of WWII Poster‎

‎Original Posters for Women World War Effort‎

‎World War posters advertising for women supporting the War effort. YWCA "Care for Her" & "For every fighter a woman worker!" poster c. 1915 backed on linen 41" x 27." This poster prominently features a woman factory worker confidently holding up an early biplane. It is an original World War I poster created by Adolph Treidler to publicize the YWCA's participation in the United War Work Campaign November 11 - 18 1918. <br/><br/>The United War Work Campaign was a a one-week fundraising effort during World War I. Seven voluntary organizations -- the National War Work Council of the YMCA the War Work Council of the YWCA the National Catholic War Council Knights of Columbus the Jewish Welfare Board the War Camp Community Service the American Library Association and the Salvation Army sought to raise $170500000 in subscriptions and pledges during the week of November 11-18 1918 to help boost American soldiers' morale and provide them with recreational activities.<br/>Women may not have fought on the front lines in World War I but as more and more men joined up they were needed in the defense industries and military support jobs. For Every Fighter a Woman Worker 1918 depicts a female munitions worker with the symmetrical poise and beauty of a classical statue; she bears a miniature war-plane in one hand and a bomb-shell in the other. In reality the work she advertised was dirty dangerous physically demanding and attended by frequent explosions and instances of chemical poisoning. Such injuries and fatalities did not come with medals and war pensions. The poster emphasizes the need to "Care for Her Through the YWCA" but ultimately the concern seems to be as much about her moral as physical welfare. The classical beauty of the figure helped to reassure women that their femininity would not be compromised by such work. unknown books‎

‎Boston: Small Maynard & Company 1925. First Edition. Octavo 19.5cm; navy blue cloth with titles stamped in gilt on spine and front cover; dustjacket; iv23-3053pp. Spine ends very gently nudged hint of dustiness to upper edge of textblock else a fresh Fine copy.

Attractive copy of Powell's first novel an autobiographical work recounting the story of an idealistic Midwestern girl who moves to New York aspiring to be a playwright. She settles into a boarding house for women surrounded by a cast of characters who are perpetually out of money deeply concerned with their wardrobes and trying to find a man. She finds fulfilling work as a copy writer navigates her way throughout a string of suitors all the while soliciting advice from her housemates quits her job and briefly entertains the idea of taking up with a Greenwich Village bohemian and writing plays full-time; she abandons her dreams after accepting an eleventh hour proposal from a wealthy suitor embarks on a steamship to London with her man and sails off toward her new life with the words "Is the world really so gorgeous as this" <br/><br/>The earlier part of the novel at least somewhat mirrors Powell's own experiences. She led a somewhat unhappy childhood in Ohio where her stepmother took pleasure at burning her early attempts at poetry and fiction; after moving in with a supportive aunt and attending Lake Erie College she moved to Manhattan to pursue a career as a writer finding work as a publicist for several organizations before marrying her husband an advertising executive named Joseph Gousha and settling in Greenwich Village where she would live out the rest of her life. Her marriage allowed her to quit her job and focus on her writing full-time "using the Children's Reading Room of the New York Public Library on Fifth Avenue as the place to write. What became the classic elements of Dawn Powell's work were in evidence from the outset. Her first novel Whither.has the characteristic satiric tone mordant wit and unforgiving eye for the foibles of middle-class Americans whether they lived in the Middle West the setting for her early work or were newly arrived midwestern émigrés to the big city of New York desperately seeking sophistication" Carnes Mark C. "Dawn Powell." Invisible Giants: Fifty Americans Who Shaped the Nation but Missed the History Books p.232. Powell disavowed her literary debut leaving it out of lists of her publications throughout her lifetime and referring to She Walks In Beauty 1928 as her first novel. An uncommon debut published in small numbers and rare in dustjacket; we find no copies for sale in the auction record and OCLC notes a scant 11 holdings in U.S. institutions. SMITH P-576.
