ITEM DESCRIPTION: Here is a Beautiful & Ultra Rare Vintage Mid Century Original 1942 WWII U.S. Lithograph Red Cross Poster (Not a modern reproduction) titled, “They Need Your Blood”, after the original illustration by the well known listed painter, illustrator & Disney animation artist ‘Rixford Upham Jennings’ (American, 1906-1996), whose printed signature appears lower left in the image area. The Poster is direct from the Jennings Estate, and a copy of Rix’s Poster was recently featured in our solo exhibition for Rix Jennings in March of this year 2019 (this Poster listed being a duplicate). The WWII scene features a soldier rescuing his wounded buddy on his back from ‘no man’s land’, both silhouetted against a crimson sky. Background of Poster: Out of 156 poster designs, Jennings Poster won First Prize of $75- in the John J. Albright (1848-1931) Blood Donor Poster Contest held from September to October of 1942, in Buffalo, NY, sponsored by the Albright Art Gallery—The Albright Art Gallery was named in honor for its benefactor, businessman & philanthropist John J. Albright, and is now known as the Albright-Knox Art Gallery. Prize ceremonies were held at the Albright Art Gallery on October 21, 1942 and all the posters were on exhibition at the gallery from October 21-28. Jennings not only had taken First Prize in the poster contest, but a second poster design by Jennings received Honorable Mention. His winning poster design went into immediate circulation and at the time, Jennings had also illustrated the Red Cross Annual Report (published in booklet form). The text beneath the title in the lower portion of the Poster reads: ‘Call Your Red Cross Chapter Now, Blood Donor Service’, and also features the small Red Cross logo in-between. There is no publisher or printer info printed on the piece, so I’m assuming it was printed by the Red Cross themselves. These types of war propaganda posters were intended to be used as simple inexpensive posters and put up in or out in public spaces around cities, in civic buildings, schools, train stations, etc., and were not made to last, let alone be saved and/or framed up. To find ones in even good condition are fairly rare to find on the open market and are actively sought after by collectors. Size & Condition: The size is 18” x 13-5/8”, Matted size is 24” x 18”, Visible Mat Opening size is 17-1/2” x 13-1/4”. The Poster was drymounted originally to its thin and stiff backing cardboard mount, but was recently archivally matted, with the poster hinged to an archival backing stock with flip-front cream-colored mat for not only protection, but easy framing. The Poster had been tucked away in our client’s personal collection, away from light this whole time and is in Good-VeryGood Rare+ condition for its vintage mid century age, with no real or discernable color fade. Our Poster is basically as good as any collector could hope to find in its original never-framed condition and will be sold “AS IS” in its “As Found/As Described” condition with its new mat. There are a two hard-creases in a couple corners: One in the upper left & one lower left, which have caused a little ink-cracking (mostly on top left) and have a few small associated tears (1/2” tear bottom edge far-left; and 1/4” tear top edge far-left), and the mat covers a portion of the tears & some of the crease lines (not completely though), and a sections of each area are still visible in the mat-opening but certainly don’t detract from the graphic poster itself. Other very minimal & slight small creases noticeable here & there on the poster with very minimal ink-cracking on a few (not really worth mentioning). There’s a few tiny corner dog-ear bends with associated corner rounding, slight outer edge wear with some tiny edge chipping and wear here & there along all four edges, slight surface scuffing here & there (hardly noticeable) and a few ultra tiny surface nicks scattered here & there and a few other tiny surface blemishes too—despite my very conservative condition assessment, the Poster still presents well with its bold design. Ultra minimal (only a few) tiny ink-offset specks here & there (done at the time of printing) noticeable only here & there in the red background sky area. No foxing evident that I can see. Slight normal toning of the stock from age. This beautiful & rare vintage WWII propaganda poster will make a wonderful addition to any WWII/U.S. military history or Red Cross art collection. The piece will be shipped flat & hardpacked for safe transport.
