EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative WWI poster, titled 'War Loan,' dates back to circa 1916 and is a poignant reminder of the collective efforts and sacrifices made during the First World War. The poster was produced by the Parliamentary War Savings Committee, an organization established to encourage the British public to invest in war bonds and contribute financially to the ongoing military conflict. The powerful image features a determined Chancellor of the Exchequer, John R. C. Morley, delivering a passionate speech to the crowd. With outstretched arms and a fiery gaze, Morley implores the people to 'Invest in the War Loan,' emphasizing the importance of their financial contribution to the war effort. The caption below the image quotes Morley's inspiring words, 'Every penny you save or borrow to buy War Savings Certificates is a blow struck for victory.' The poster's design is simple yet effective, with Morley's stern expression and the bold red text drawing the viewer's attention. The use of patriotic colors and the image of a soldier standing tall in the background further emphasizes the call to action. During the war, the Parliamentary War Savings Committee played a crucial role in raising funds for the British military effort. By purchasing war bonds, the public not only provided essential financial support but also demonstrated their commitment to the war effort and their belief in the cause. This powerful poster is a testament to the unity and determination of the British people during a time of great hardship and adversity.
