EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a powerful World War II recruitment poster, created in 1943. The poster urges women to seize a remarkable opportunity by joining the WAVES (Women Accepted for Volunteer Emergency Service) division of the US Navy. Illustrated by John Falter, this lithograph emanates patriotism and determination. The image depicts a young woman dressed in the iconic navy uniform, standing tall with confidence. Her gaze is fixed on an unseen horizon, symbolizing her readiness to serve her country during these tumultuous times. The text boldly proclaims "Don't miss your great opportunity - the Navy needs you in the WAVES" emphasizing that every woman has an important role to play in supporting the Allied forces. Set against the backdrop of mid-1940s New York City, this poster captures both the spirit of unity and resilience that defined America during WWII. It serves as a reminder of how women stepped up to fill crucial positions traditionally held by men while their brothers, husbands, and fathers fought on foreign shores. This Granger Collection print offers viewers a glimpse into history's defining moments when ordinary individuals became heroes through their selfless service and unwavering dedication to their nation.
