Administration Birthday Fight Infantile Progress Paralysis
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative poster invites guests to attend "The President's Birthday Ball: So We May Dance Again - Fight for Progress in the Cause of Infantile Paralysis." The event, held between 1936 and 1939, was a fundraiser organized during the presidency of a prominent American leader, whose image graces the top left corner of the poster. The poster's design is a testament to the optimistic spirit of the era, with its bold typography and vibrant colors. The President's Birthday Ball was an annual social event that brought together prominent members of society to raise awareness and funds for the fight against infantile paralysis, also known as polio. The poster's tagline, "So We May Dance Again," conveys a sense of hope and determination, suggesting that through collective effort, the dance floor could once again be filled with the joy of movement, a freedom that many children with polio had been denied. The poster was produced during the Works Progress Administration (WPA), a New Deal program that provided employment and resources to artists, writers, and performers. The WPA's influence is evident in the high-quality design and production values of the poster, which would have been displayed in public spaces and used to promote the event through various channels. The poster's powerful message and striking design serve as a reminder of the collective efforts and determination that have gone into the ongoing fight against infantile paralysis and other debilitating diseases. Today, we continue to build on the progress made during that era, working towards a world where all children can dance freely and without fear of disease.
