This piece is unusual for pairing two drives: it asks viewers to wear the honor button of the Fourth Liberty Loan and also urges them to buy a bond from the Second. The Liberty Loans were the war bond campaigns the United States used to finance its part in World War I, with the Second held in 1917 and the Fourth in 1918. Buyers were often given a small honor button to wear in public, which turned a financial purchase into a visible sign of civic loyalty. Materials like this were displayed in schools, workplaces and public spaces to keep the call to support the war effort in front of people.
