Issued in Vienna in 1917, this color lithograph urges readers to subscribe to the seventh war loan of Austria-Hungary, as its German title, "Zeichnet 7. Kriegsanleihe," states outright. The printer, J. Weiner, carried the "K. u. K. Hofl." designation of a court supplier to the imperial and royal household, and the artist is identified only by the initials "E.P." By 1917 the Habsburg government depended heavily on borrowing from its own citizens to fund the war, and posters like this one were a main way of reaching ordinary people who might buy bonds.
