Among the World War I posters here, this one stands out for pairing a call to buy war bonds with a plowing scene, a link the subject headings make between the war effort and Austria's farm economy. Its German title, *Zeichnet Kriegsanleihe!*, means "Subscribe to the War Loan!", and it is signed by R. Lendl. Austria-Hungary financed much of its war through public loan subscriptions, and by 1918, as shortages and inflation deepened, posters like this one framed buying bonds as a patriotic duty for ordinary citizens, including those who worked the land.
