EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating poster from World War I showcases the American Salvation Army's contribution to the war effort. Titled "Oh, boy! That's the Girl!", this 1918 print encapsulates the spirit of patriotism and volunteerism that swept across America during those tumultuous times. In this vibrant illustration, a young American girl donning a helmet proudly serves doughnuts to soldiers. The image exudes an early sense of feminism as it challenges traditional gender roles by depicting women actively involved in supporting their country on the front lines. The slogan boldly displayed at the top reads "American Women Help Our Men Win The War". This powerful message not only encourages women to contribute but also emphasizes their crucial role in achieving victory. As a piece of propaganda, this poster aimed to rally support for both the Salvation Army and America's involvement in World War I. It effectively captures the patriotic fervor that permeated society at that time, urging citizens to unite behind their troops and provide aid wherever possible. This historical artifact is a testament to how art can inspire action and evoke emotions even amidst chaos. Preserved by The Granger Collection, New York, this iconic image continues to serve as a reminder of sacrifice, unity, and unwavering determination during one of history's most significant conflicts.
