Vintage WWII Medical Art "Treatment Under Tents" by David Stone Martin

In 1943, Abbott Laboratories (a manufacturer of medical supplies) hired various artists to spend time among United States military medical staff to record their efforts in World War II. Through these artists' works we get an authentic look into the heroic deeds of multitudes of those who served in the armed forces. Afterward, the artwork was toured across the nation, featured in museums and various publications. Here is a chance for you to own one of these authentic works. 

"Treatment Under Tents" is a pen and ink drawing by David Stone Martin depicting two servicemen treating a wounded soldier, setting his arm in a splint. David Stone Martin (1913-1992) attended the Art Institute of Chicago and is best known for his illustrations on jazz album covers, including for Charlie Parker, Billie Holiday, and Ella Fitzgerald, to name a few.
