EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative wartime poster from the 1940s, titled 'Buy Savings Certificates: Back them up!', urges citizens to support the war effort through financial contributions. The powerful image depicts three brave soldiers, dressed in full military regalia and carrying their rifles, marching into battle. The background is a blur of chaos and destruction, reminding viewers of the realities of war and the sacrifices being made by the military. The soldiers' determined expressions and focused gaze are mirrored in the text of the poster, which emphasizes the importance of financial contributions to the war effort. The phrase 'Back them up!' is a call to action, encouraging citizens to buy Savings Certificates to support the war effort financially. The Savings Certificates were a popular form of investment during World War II, offering investors a fixed rate of interest and the opportunity to contribute to the war effort. The certificates were backed by the full faith and credit of the British government, making them a safe investment during uncertain times. This poster is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made during World War II, both on the battlefield and on the home front. It highlights the importance of collective effort and financial contributions in supporting the war effort and ultimately, contributing to the Allied victory. The image of the soldiers marching into battle serves as a powerful symbol of the courage and determination of the military and the British people during wartime.
