Description

The U.S. War Bonds poster

This U.S. War Bonds poster was printed by the Government Printing Office for the Treasury in 1943, one of a set of the same design in different languages for immigrant communities. The Finnish line Paremman Päivän Toivossa means “in hope of a better day”. The same Statue of Liberty appeared in Ukrainian, Romanian and Slovene editions, all aimed at Americans who read their home languages.

The Finnish version carries an extra edge. Finland fought alongside Germany against the Soviet Union from 1941 to 1944, yet the United States never declared war on it. The Treasury was asking Finnish-Americans to fund a war in which their homeland stood on the other side.

The artist is not recorded.
