For victory, buy more bonds" urged Americans to keep investing as the Fourth Liberty Loan campaign ran in the fall of 1918. The Treasury Department issued Liberty bonds to help finance U.S. entry into World War I, and this was the last of four such drives that year. J. Scott Williams, a illustrator known for his Liberty Loan work, designed the image, and the Karle Lithograph Company of Rochester, New York, printed it in color. Posters like this one were displayed in shops, banks, and public buildings, where they tied the purchase of bonds to patriotic duty on the home front.
