About This Item
Vienna: Der Deutsche Vortrupp-Bund, [191-]. Poster. 12.5x16.5 inch poster, creased from having been folded into quarters, some uneven toning, otherwise very good. Text within the outline of a glass. Year "1914 or 15" penciled in upper left corner, but this could have been a previous owner's guess. In the context of the war, argues that the use of potatoes, grain, and fruit to brew alcoholic drinks is wasteful and can lead to malnutrition, removing food from people's tables and sabotaging the war effort. Contact information for various teetotaling organizations in Austria is provided near the bottom. The Vortrupp-Bund advocated abstinence from alcohol and tobacco even in peacetime, all the more so during the war.
