Young Women's Christian Association, Women's War Time Fund, 1915

What it is
A colour lithograph the Young Women's Christian Association issued in 1915 for its Women's War Time Fund, artist unrecorded, 76 by 50 cm.
Why it matters
The fund needed £25,000 immediately to give the women working in the factories rest-rooms, canteens and hostels.
What to notice
Women working at a lathe in a factory complex, with a YWCA building visible through the window.
A canteen and a bed, for the night shift.
