EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage poster from the City of Chicago Municipal Tuberculosis Sanitarium is a powerful reminder of the efforts made during the 1930s and 1940s to combat tuberculosis, a prevalent disease at that time. The poster, created as part of the Works Progress Administration's Federal Arts Project, features an American girl roller skating with joy and confidence. The image is accompanied by a slogan that emphasizes the importance of good grades and good health complementing each other. The poster serves as both a public health message and an educational tool. It encourages viewers to prioritize their well-being by getting tested for tuberculosis while also highlighting the connection between academic success and physical wellness. By promoting these values, it aimed to create awareness about tuberculosis prevention among citizens in Chicago. During this period, tuberculosis was considered an epidemic in many parts of North America. The government recognized its severity and launched initiatives like this one to raise awareness about testing methods available at municipal sanitariums. Today, this historical artifact stands as a testament to the efforts made by communities across America during challenging times. It reminds us of how far we have come in terms of medical advancements while serving as a symbol of hope for continued progress in public health education.
