This vintage graphic features stylized line drawings of nurses in period-accurate 1960s uniforms, highlighting variations in dress length, apron use, and especially the elaborate, city- or hospital-specific nursing caps. Each cap is labeled with its origin-such as “Mount Sinai, New York City,” “St. Vincent’s, New York City,” or “Cook County, Chicago”-revealing how institutional identity was expressed through headwear. The red-and-black color scheme and retro typography reinforce the mid-century aesthetic.
