EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful poster from 1916, titled "Subscribe to the 5 1/2% War Loan. Build the Road to Victory," calls on citizens to invest in war bonds to support the ongoing military efforts. The image features a determined man in uniform, standing tall and firing a mounted machine gun from the cockpit of a fighter plane. The plane, with its wings spread wide, symbolizes the courage and strength of the Allied forces. The rugged road beneath the plane represents the long and arduous journey towards victory, emphasizing the importance of every individual's contribution. The text at the bottom of the poster encourages viewers to "Subscribe for 5 1/2%," emphasizing the financial reward for those who invest in the war effort. The poster's bold design and evocative imagery were effective tools in rallying public support and raising funds for the war effort during World War I. This historic poster is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices and resilience demonstrated by individuals and nations during times of conflict.
