Description: Original 1918 WWI cabinet card photo, 9 x 11,” showing nine Red Cross Students or Volunteers with instructor, who is wearing an A.R.C. armband, with Red Cross medals or patches at the neck and on her head covering. One of the women is holding a small whisk broom and another is measuring the folded dressing with a ruler. The photo was taken by Ross of Tipton, Missouri and measures 9 x 11”. I found Peter F. Ross, photographer, in the 1900 census for Tipton, Missouri, and, in 1920, at age 72, he was still working as a photographer. The photo is hand-dated on the back as 1918, and, in pencil, someone wrote “Red Cross Girls of 1918, Surgical Dress…” This wonderful old photo is damaged at three corners by creasing; there are also tiny insect nips around the edges of the photo and elsewhere in the image. The card is worn around the edges and may have had some trimming along the left side. See scans. NO LOCAL PICKUPS.
