Entitled: "Stage women's war relief, 1918." Poster showing a woman on stage, throwing off a scarlet, fur-trimmed cloak to reveal her white volunteer's uniform. The Stage Women's War Relief was born and began operation on the eve of America's entry into the first World War in 1917. The organization established workrooms for sewing, clothing and food collection centers, a canteen on Broadway for servicemen, and began sending troops of entertainers to perform wherever needed. Perhaps most significantly, speakers, trained by the organization, sold Liberty Bonds. Through the vision and patriotism of the theater community, the Stage Women's War Relief became one of the most significant and active relief organizations in the world. Artist James Montgomery Flagg.
