EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant poster, dating back to 1918, serves as a powerful reminder of the collective efforts made by individuals during wartime to support the troops and contribute to the war effort. The image features a soldier solemnly clasping the hands of two children, with the caption "Help him win by saving and serving - Buy War Savings Stamps." During World War I, the United States government launched a campaign to encourage citizens to buy War Savings Stamps as a way to support the war effort financially. These stamps were sold in denominations of $0.25, $0.50, $1.00, and $5.00, and could be purchased at post offices, banks, and other retailers. The stamps were then redeemed for War Savings Bonds, which could be used to purchase savings certificates or savings bonds with a face value of up to $1,000. The poster's message is clear: by buying War Savings Stamps, citizens were not only helping to finance the war, but they were also serving their country in a tangible way. The image of the soldier and children emphasizes the importance of unity and sacrifice during wartime, and the role that every individual could play in helping to bring about a victorious outcome. This poster is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by soldiers and civilians alike during wartime, and the power of collective action to bring about positive change. It also serves as a reminder of the enduring importance of saving and investing for the future, even in the face of adversity.
