    Near Mint Original 1917 WW1 Red Cross War Fund Poster
    "Greatest Mother In The World"
    By A.E. Foringer
    Original World War I poster with the slogan, "The Greatest Mother in the World." The poster has a large red cross in the upper left corner. A drawing at the center shows a loving mother who is wearing a Red Cross nurse's uniform and is cradling a wounded soldier in her arms. The drawing and text are shown in green on a white background. It was designed by A. E. Foringer whose name is shown at the center right side of the poster. Small printed text in the lower right corner shows "Form N.Y. 31, Second War Fund." Part of a series of posters designed to raise funds for WW1 efforts. This original 1917 poster is in exceptionally rare, near fine condition. See detailed condition report. Measures 20 1/2 " x 27 1/2". This poster came from the attic of an estate in Maine and was auctioned with several others at a premier auction house in Thomaston, Me. I have several similar listings. This was photographed on a white board background. Stored flat until shipped in tube.
