In den WarenkorbZustand: Very Good. A collection of four original gouache paintings on artist board designed and painted by J. Franklin Whitman for the American Red Cross War Fund, together with two gelatin silver photographs of Whitman, both of which are inscribed and signed by him on the versos. The image size of the paintings range from 10.5…" x 14.5" to 22" x 29". All are signed by Whitman at the bottom corner of the image. A group of four powerful poster images of American Red Cross workers, issued as part of the Red Cross's ongoing fundraising campaign during the last two years of the war. Franklin Roosevelt called it the "greatest single crusade of mercy in all of history." The four paintings feature a female officer of the Red Cross Motor Corps; a portrait of female and male officer with the Military Welfare Service; a GI advancing in battle with a Red Cross CIO officer standing behind him; and a U.S. Army medic administering a blood IV to a wounded soldier inside a bombed-out church. The first three paintings were published in 1943-44 (one has a War Department ink stamp dated Oct. 5, 1943); the painting of the Army medic, likely intended for the Red Cross's Blood Donor Program, appears not to have been published. Also included are two photographs (6.75" x 5") of Whitman at work painting a GI. One is inscribed: "The Artist as an Old Man! / Franklin, December, 1944"; the other has a lengthy manuscript note: "Goodman says of this painting that I painted an idealized version of myself as a young soldier in modern uniform. Perhaps. But if so it is certainly idealized, of that, my best friends, who remember me as a young soldier, would be vociferously insistent. / Franklin, December 1944." An accompanying photostatic copy of a two-page South Carolina State document identifies one "Sgt. Norman H. Gaillard of Williamstown" as the person pictured on the American Red Cross War Fund Posters: "J. Franklin Whitman who designed and painted the original posters said in reference to [Gaillard] "he is young, gay, and idealistic, but the lines of his face are hard and lean. He has the stamina that he can take it or dish it out." An historically important and compelling suite of paintings dating from the peak of Red Cross wartime activity: by the time World War II ended in 1945, the American public had contributed over $784 million in support of the American Red Cross. A detailed list of each work follows: 1. *["Volunteer for Red Cross Motor Corps"]*. Gouache painting (17.75" x 21.5") on board (22" x 28.5"). Ink stamp on bottom margin: "Released for publication Oct. 5, 1943, War Department." Dry glue staining to the margins from a mat frame (removed), light craquelure, very good. Depicts a female officer of the Red Cross Motor Corps seated in jeep, flanked on either side by an U.S. Air Force pilot and officer. The printed poster declares underneath the image: "Volunteer for Red Cross Motor Corps." 2. *["In Camp And Overseas, Red Cross Workers Serve Our Fighting Forces"]*. Gouache painting (14" x 14.75") on board (16.5" x 18.5"). Dry glue staining to the margins from a mat frame (removed), some craquelure, about very good. Portrait of two A.R.C. officers (one woman and man) of the Military Welfare Service. The printed poster reads underneath the image: "In Camp And Overseas, Red Cross Workers Serve Our Fighting Forces." 3. *["Support the Red Cross / National CIO War Relief Committee"]*. Gouache painting (20" x 24") on board (22" x 29"). A few manuscript measurements and ink stamp on bottom margin: "Master Copy" dated and initialed in manuscript (12/2/44). Modest rubbing and some staining to the margins, very good. Depicts a GI advancing in battle with an A.R.C. CIO officer standing behind him. The printed poster reads underneath the image: "Support the Red Cross / National CIO War Relief Committee." 4. *[Army Medic]*. Gouache painting on board (10.5" x 14.5"). Taped at the back onto a mat frame (14" x 19"). Modest soiling and a bump to the mat frame, near fine. Depicts a U.S. Army medic administering a blood IV to a wounded soldier in front of an altar inside a bombed-out church. (Not published?).

In den WarenkorbZustand: Very Good. A collection of 13 original gouache paintings on paper, each measuring 12" x 16.25", mounted onto artist's boards (15" x 20"). One painting (of Lewis and Clark) has been neatly removed from the board (not present), modest rubbing and some scattered light glue stains at the margins of a few boards, one paintin…g (of Andrew Jackson) with a few light scratches, overall very good or better. A very bright and attractive set of undated portrait paintings, most likely painted by J. Franklin Whitman as illustrations for a book or magazine. Born in Indianapolis, Indiana, Whitman attended both the Art Students League and the Metropolitan School of Art in New York. By 1920 he had set up Whitman Studios in Philadelphia. He is best known today for his historical book illustrations, a famous May 1928 *Vanity Fair* cover, and for his powerful series of posters which he designed and painted for the American Red Cross War Fund in 1943 and 1944. A compelling suite of 13 early paintings from Whitman's career, featuring portraits of Alexander Hamilton, George Washington, James Monroe, and several other celebrated Revolutionary War military leaders: Nathanael Greene, Henry Knox, Benjamin Lincoln, Daniel Morgan, Horatio Lloyd Gates, Marquis de Lafayette, and Friedrich Wilhelm von Steuben. Also included are portraits of Andrew Jackson, Meriwether Lewis and William Clark, and America's Grand Old Man of the Army: Winfield Scott, also known as "Old Fuss and Feathers.".
