What it is
A colour lithograph by an unnamed artist, made for the fourth issue of Liberty Bonds in 1918, 61 by 96 cm, a sheet wider than it is tall, with the name United Cigars on it.
Why it matters
The Fourth Liberty Loan ran for three weeks in the autumn of 1918, and the headline gives its dates, 28 September to 19 October.
What to notice
Uncle Sam with a truck full of citizens holding Liberty Bonds, and on the truck a sign: To Berlin.
A loan drive, given a destination.
