EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and striking print captures the essence of patriotism and unity during a significant period in American history. Created by Joseph Christian Leyendecker, "USA Bonds, 1917" is an iconic colour lithograph that showcases the power of propaganda in promoting war efforts. The poster features Lady Liberty as the central figure, symbolizing freedom and protection. Standing beside her is a young Boy Scout holding a sword inscribed with the motto "Be prepared". This imagery emphasizes the importance of readiness and preparedness for defending one's country. With its bold design and vivid colours, this vintage poster served as an advertisement for the Third Liberty Loan Campaign during World War I. It aimed to encourage citizens to invest in bonds that would provide crucial funds for supporting the war effort. The inclusion of a Boy Scout highlights their role as patriotic individuals who were actively involved in promoting these campaigns. The image evokes a sense of duty and sacrifice among Americans, urging them to contribute financially towards securing victory on both national and international fronts. As we reflect on this powerful artwork today, it serves as a reminder of our collective responsibility to support our nation's economy and protect our values. The "USA Bonds, 1917" print continues to be an enduring symbol of American resilience during times of adversity.
