EDITORS COMMENTS
Mrs. Frank P. Brown of Cincinnati, Ohio, proudly holds up her 1st prize winning entry of canned vegetables during the early 1910s. This poignant photograph, captured by the renowned Harris & Ewing studio, encapsulates the spirit of the American home front during the First World War. The allegorical figure of the United States, personified as a woman, can be seen in the background, holding a banner that reads "Sow the seeds of Victory! plant and raise your own vegetables." The call to action was part of a larger campaign led by Charles Lathrop Pack, the President of the National War Garden Commission, encouraging Americans to grow their own food to support the war effort. With flags of the USA and Ohio flying proudly, Mrs. Brown's accomplishment represents not only her personal triumph but also her contribution to the nation's war effort. The photograph, taken in black and white, showcases the simple yet powerful message of self-sufficiency and patriotism that resonated deeply with Americans during this time. The glass negative, a testament to the artistic vision of Harris & Ewing, remains a valuable piece of heritage art and a reminder of the spirit of resilience and determination that characterized the American home front during the First World War.
