| $225.00 | Women-s-Army-Corps | Stand-up-Poster-for-WAC-Topographic-Draftsman | Among the key events impacting the women's movement was World War II. With men away at war, tens of thousands of women entered the workforce to meet the demands of the war for labor. Among the most well-known was "Rosie the Riveter". Here we might have an advertisement to fill the job of "Carrol the Cartographer".
