EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage poster, dating between 1936 and 1938, promotes the importance of proper health care for pregnant women. The image features a stork delivering a baby, symbolizing the arrival of a new life, while the text emphasizes the significance of seeking advice from trusted sources during this critical time. The Progress Administration (WPA), a New Deal agency, produced this poster as part of its Works Progress Administration Federal Art Project. The project aimed to provide employment for artists, writers, and other professionals during the Great Depression, while also creating public works of art and literature. The poster's design is simple yet effective, with bold, clear typography and a striking visual image. The use of a stork, a traditional symbol of childbirth, adds a touch of whimsy and warmth to the message. The text encourages pregnant women to consult their doctor or health bureau for advice, emphasizing the importance of professional guidance and support during pregnancy. This was particularly important during this time, as access to healthcare and accurate information was not always readily available. The poster's message remains relevant today, as pregnant women continue to benefit from the expertise and resources of healthcare professionals and public health organizations. By following the advice of trusted sources, women can ensure the best possible outcomes for themselves and their babies. This poster is a testament to the power of public health campaigns and the importance of education and access to healthcare. It serves as a reminder that, whether we are expecting a new addition to our families or not, we all have a role to play in promoting health and well-being in our communities.
