What it is
A lithograph F. Walter Taylor drew for the Committee on Public Information's Division of Pictorial Publicity in 1917, 102 by 72 cm.
Why it matters
The Committee on Public Information, the Creel Committee, used every medium it could reach to build support for the war at home, and this sheet asked workers to give back what the country had given them.
What to notice
Workers against a background of smokestacks.
A debt to the country, paid in labour.
