Show The 1936 Red Cross Poster 7 i y vi h 'i I ' It i V I 7 P I ij if 1 w f ii y If T1IS year's American Red Cross poster emphasizes the theme that the Red Cross is "of, by and for the people." Four million men and women are members of the Red Cross and through their membership dues they support its activities. Only in time of major disaster when needs for relief reach great proportions does the Red Cross ask the public for disaster relief re-lief funds. The membership funds represent the financial support of the Red Cross, and in turn this money is used to carry the Red Cross work of mercy to distressed citizens. Membership Mem-bership is open to all, without regard to race, color or creed, and the Red Cross services are given to all, without with-out restriction. The annual Roll Call for members is held Armistice Day to Thanksgiving Thanksgiv-ing Day, November 11 - 26. The poster for 1936 is by Walter W. Seaton, noted illustrator and painter of movie and radio stars. |
