A charity sale poster from 1916 advertises the work of the Oeuvre du Soldat Ardennais, a French fundraising effort on behalf of soldiers from the Ardennes, a northeastern department that the German army occupied for most of the war after the autumn of 1914. Posters like this one were common in wartime France, where local charities raised money for soldiers at the front, for their families, and for displaced residents. Looking closely at the lettering and layout shows how such appeals were designed to catch the eye of passersby in towns and cities.
