Got one? Get one! Buy another Victory Note
Description
First World War poster depicting a red feather at the top with text underneath stating: 'Got one? Get One! Buy another Victory Note'. The text is imploring people to buy more war bonds to speed up victory. Many countries involved in the war realised that they would need more funds to resource their campaigns, so many developed war loan programs. These programs encouraged the population to purchase government war bonds which would be repaid with interest, and assist the war effort. These loan subscriptions have been estimated to have covered 60 percent or more of the cost of the war in Germany. War loan posters were in abundant supply during the First World War and played on the populations' patriotism.
