Its title, "Der 9te Pfeil zeichnet Kriegsanleihe," tells the viewer that the arrow, a symbol of the nation's united effort, is being asked to subscribe to a war loan. The poster is one of the German "Kriegsanleihe" appeals of 1918, when the government raised money for the war through public bond sales, and this one belongs to the ninth such drive. Its design is credited to the artist Erler, and it sits within the wider wartime campaign that used color lithographic posters to reach ordinary citizens and pull them into financing the war. The subject tags also show that the Library of Congress groups it under economic and fundraising efforts on the home front.
