EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative World War I poster, titled "You have in your pocket Silver Bullets that will stop the Germans," was created by the Parliamentary War Savings Committee around 1916. The image is a powerful call to action, urging citizens to invest in the War Loan to help finance the ongoing conflict. The poster features a hand reaching into a pocket, pulling out a handful of silver coins, symbolizing the idea that each coin could be a 'silver bullet' that would contribute to the defeat of the German army. The backdrop is a blue and yellow background, reminiscent of the British flag, further emphasizing the patriotic appeal. The text below the image reads, "Lend them to your country by investing in the War Loan Today." This poster was a common sight during wartime, as the British government relied heavily on public funding to support the war effort. The use of the metaphor of a 'silver bullet' was a clever way to make the act of investing in the war seem like a personal contribution to the war effort, and ultimately, to the safety and security of the nation. This historical artifact is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices and collective efforts made during the First World War.
