{"product_id":"wwii-workplace-propaganda-8","title":"Blood Plasma, Work Propaganda (WW2)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis World War II propaganda poster delivers one of the most psychologically compelling arguments for blood donation ever devised. Featuring a U.S. Army Signal Corps photograph of a medic administering plasma to a wounded soldier against a battle-scarred wall, the image captures the desperate urgency of battlefield medicine. Below, Major General Norman T. Kirk, Surgeon General of the United States Army, delivers a sobering message: wounded American soldiers in American hands need plasma to survive.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe poster's design masterfully combines documentary photography with patriotic graphic elements. The duotone photograph occupies the upper portion, while the lower section presents Kirk's quote in bold serif type against a salmon panel, framed by red and navy blue bands punctuated with white stars. This red, white, and blue color scheme reinforces the patriotic duty of blood donation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eProduced by Elliott Service Co. of New York as part of the government's numbered poster series, this piece represents the massive WWII blood plasma campaign that saved countless American lives. A powerful artifact of home front participation in the war effort, it speaks to the connection between civilian sacrifice and soldier survival.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 21.5\" x 16.5\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Very Good, Age-appropriate wear, fading and toning.
