To Have and to Hold Buy War Bonds - official U.S. Treasury poster - to encourage the purchase of war bonds to support the U.S. military in World War II - a baby with pleading eyes asks for help

This poster was printed by the U.S. Treasury Department and was apparently created for the Sixth War Loans campaign. The 6th war loan began in November 1944 with a goal of $16 billion. Previous bond drives had managed to raise $355 billion, including $38 billion from private individuals.

70x52 cm. mounted on canvas for display and preservation. Very good condition.
