This poster was used to encourage the public to make a last final effort and buy war bonds to ensure a quick and total victory. Uncle Sam hands a farmer bonds in exchange for money, as a battlefield forms the background. The 7th War Loan raised over $26 billion in 48 days, even though officials were concerned that the defeat of Germany could decrease the sale of bonds.
George Kanelous (1915-1998) was an American illustrator and muralist. Born in Uruguay to Greek parents, Kanelous emigrated to America in 1918. In addition to his WWII posters, Kanelous created many public murals in the 1930s for the WPA.

What People Are Saying...

If there's anything you want to know about posters, vintage or more modern, there's nothing Mr Ross doesn't know. His open and friendly manner helps one to choose the most suitable material whether for decoration, investment or whatever... I can't recommend him highly enough.

Just wanted to say thanks for the poster. You sent it on Thursday and it was delivered the following Monday (nearly quicker than it took us to get home) to our house in Perth, Australia. We have just had it framed. We love it; it goes perfectly with the room.

The Ross Gallery has the best selection of vintage posters I have ever seen. Seriously, if you are in the market, they are the people. And, they know everything there is to know about the posters' provenance.
