Lend the way they fight" makes the case for buying bonds in plain terms: money at home should support the soldiers overseas as surely as weapons do. E.M. Ashe's 1918 color lithograph belongs to a wave of First World War posters, when the United States financed much of its war effort through Liberty Loan campaigns. Posters like this one carried those appeals into streets, storefronts and public spaces, asking ordinary citizens to lend their savings to the government.
