What it is
A colour lithograph Sidney H. Riesenberg drew for the Third Liberty Loan of 1918, printed by Ketterlinus of Philadelphia, 76 by 50 cm, sheet No. 1-A.
Why it matters
The Third Liberty Loan opened in April 1918, and the title trades a soldier's charge for a civilian's bond. Riesenberg was known above all for his Marine Corps and Liberty bond posters.
What to notice
A soldier clutching an American flag.
A charge made on the reader's behalf.
