EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a vibrant World War I poster titled "Waste Not, Want Not". Created between 1914-18 by the American School, this colour lithograph was commissioned by the Canada Food Board. The poster aims to encourage women to preserve foods for the winter, highlighting the importance of thrift and conservation during times of scarcity. The image depicts two generations of women working together in a bustling kitchen. A grandmother and her daughter can be seen surrounded by an abundance of fruits and vegetables that they are diligently canning and preserving in jars. This scene symbolizes their determination to avoid waste and ensure sustenance throughout the harsh winter months. The poster's text emphasizes the proverbial wisdom behind its message: Waste Not, Want Not. It serves as a reminder that every morsel saved today is a resource preserved for tomorrow. As World War I raged on, such efforts became crucial not only for individual households but also for entire nations facing food shortages due to conflict disruptions. This historical artifact offers us a glimpse into the resilience and resourcefulness displayed by Canadian women during this challenging period. It represents their contribution towards securing food supplies while supporting their country's war effort. Preserved within this print is not just an artistic representation but also an important piece of history—a testament to human ingenuity in times of adversity.
