QR Code Link to This Post
Measuring 22”W x 29.25" L, this is a beautiful colored map of the Near East that doubles as a poster for the American Committee for Relief in the Near East. Printed on the map are statistics of the number of square miles where aid is needed, the number of “Non-Muslims” living in the area, and the number of people who have already died as a result of “massacre and starvation”. The name of the treasurer and main organizer, Cleveland H. Dodge, is also printed, along with the address of the Committee. Finally, the goal of the committee is printed in large, red lettering across the bottom: “CAMPAIGN for $30,000,000”. It has never been folded, the only condition issue is some small edge tears on the border. The poster is framed under glass. The first time offered, this document is ripe with history and truly an incredible piece. I have other advertising and signs on Craigslist and Facebook Marketplace. If interested please enter dave rave into the central jersey search bar to see it all. Please ask any questions that you may have via email or text. Thank you, Dave
