This lithograph ties a sunrise motif to a plain sales pitch: its catalog subjects include sunrises and sunsets alongside the economic side of World War I. The slogan "To-day, buy that Liberty Bond" urges immediate action, the kind of pressure the federal government applied through Liberty Loan drives after the United States entered the war in April 1917. Those bond campaigns helped finance the war, and posters like this one carried the appeal into streets, shops and workplaces. The record dates it to 1917, which places it early in that effort.
