This German poster, titled *Zeichnet Kriegsanleihe* ("Subscribe to the War Loan"), pairs an eagle with a dove, a combination that asks viewers to see financial support for the war as both national strength and a path to peace. The Imperial German government financed much of its World War I effort through a series of public war loans, and posters like this one were a major way of urging ordinary citizens to buy bonds. The eagle was a long-standing German national emblem, while the dove softened the appeal by suggesting that a victorious conclusion would bring lasting calm. Posters of this kind show how the home front was mobilized as much through persuasion as through taxes.
