The poster opens with the phrase "Schon nach wenigen Tagen!" ("Already after a few days!"), which suggests a quick result, and sets it against the single word "Einigkeit" (unity). The color lithograph is credited to an artist named Bernhard and dates from 1919, the year Germany was building a new republic after its defeat in the First World War and the Treaty of Versailles. Posters like this addressed a population worn down by war, shortages and political upheaval, asking people to rally behind a common cause. The item comes from the Rehse Archive for contemporary history and journalism, which collected German political printed matter of the period.
