EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "TEMPERANCE CARD, c1915. Recruited From Our Homes" takes us back in time to the early 20th century America, shedding light on an important social movement of that era. The American temperance trade card showcases a wood engraving from 1915, depicting a powerful message against alcoholism. In this thought-provoking image, we see a bartender pouring beer into a glass while two men stand nearby. However, instead of indulging in the vice of drinking, they are holding up signs advocating for political action and promoting the temperance movement. This cartoon-like portrayal cleverly highlights the connection between alcohol consumption and crime prevalent during that time. The significance of this trade card lies not only in its artistic value but also in its historical context. It serves as a reminder of how communities were actively involved in recruiting individuals from their own homes to join the cause against excessive drinking and its detrimental effects on society. As we gaze upon this vintage print by Granger Art on Demand, it prompts us to reflect on the impact that such movements had on shaping American culture and attitudes towards alcohol. It reminds us that even through simple yet impactful imagery like this trade card, people sought to bring about positive change by raising awareness about temperance and encouraging political activism.
