Aruba monthly cover for the Netherlands Relief Fund, March 1945
Cover of the first issue of an Aruba monthly published for a relief fund for the Netherlands. A boxed motto reads 'Nederland zal herrijzen en in de glorie van haar herrijzenis zullen haar overzeesche gewesten schitteren' (The Netherlands will rise again, and in the glory of her resurrection her overseas territories will shine). The motto offers large positive abstractions (resurrection, glory) with no concrete claim, and the masthead names the sponsoring fund and a free print run of 1,500.
