EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage WPA poster, expertly captured by John Parrot, transports us back to the era of World War II. The striking image features a growling dog and a bleeding hand, serving as a powerful reminder of the dangers posed by animal aggression during those tumultuous times. The bold red color of the wounded hand immediately draws our attention, symbolizing pain and emergency. The growling dog conveys an air of fierceness and danger, emphasizing the urgency to report any dog bites promptly. With its Western script text that reads "Report Dog Bites, Phone Main 4600 Room II City Hall" this poster serves as both an advertisement and propaganda for public safety. As we delve into this piece's historical significance, it becomes evident that it was part of the war effort in encouraging citizens to take responsibility for their own well-being. Produced under the Works Projects Administration (WPA), this illustration exemplifies 20th-century style while effectively communicating vital advice through its form. Through digital enhancement techniques and vector illustration methods employed by Parrot, this print has been given new life while retaining its retro charm. It stands as a testament to how art can transcend time and continue guiding us even decades later. In summary, Parrot's photograph captures a poignant moment from history - reminding us not only of past struggles but also offering timeless guidance on dealing with dangerous situations like dog bites.
