EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "How to Stop Bleeding from the Nose, no. 31" is part of the First Aid series of Willss Cigarettes cards, created in 1913 by an anonymous English School artist. The image showcases a moment of emergency treatment and care as it depicts a patient with a nosebleed seeking medical assistance. The composition features a person raising their arms while holding a sponge against their nose, illustrating one method to stop bleeding. The vibrant colors used in this color lithograph highlight the urgency and importance of immediate action during such situations. These cigarette cards were originally issued by the Imperial Tobacco Company, serving not only as collectible items but also providing valuable information on various topics including health and medicine. This particular card focuses on first aid for nosebleeds, offering practical advice for anyone facing this common injury. Now preserved in a private collection, this artwork serves as both historical documentation and artistic representation of early 20th-century medical practices. It reminds us that even amidst commercial endeavors like cigarette advertising, educational materials played an essential role in disseminating knowledge about health and safety. Through its visual storytelling, this photograph print captures our attention and invites us to reflect on the significance of quick thinking when faced with unexpected injuries or emergencies related to our well-being.
