The Posters That Went to War · Over There
To-day, Buy That Liberty Bond
Liberty Loan, United States Treasury, 1917
Format
Archival pigment giclée on museum-grade matte art paper, color-managed to the source scan — the flat inks and stone grain intact. The 40×60 is the room-changer.
Size
$39.00
What it is
A colour lithograph by an unidentified artist for the Liberty Loan of 1917, 57 by 35 cm.
Why it matters
Liberty bonds paid for the American war, and for many citizens a bond was the first security they ever owned. The sheet asks for no more than the day.
What to notice
A sun with a face peeking over the horizon, above the hyphenated To-day of the title.
A sunrise, scheduled for the bank.
