This vintage original WWII poster was created by the artist Allen Saalberg and issued by the United States Treasury to promote the sale of war bonds in 1944. This poster features the bombed out ruins of a rural village under an ominous sky with the tagline This Was Once Good Earth. The poster’s stark imagery is a reminder of the horrors of war and the urgent need for every Americans to contribute all they can through the purchase of war bonds.

This vintage original poster is folded as issued and in very good condition with no tape or pinholes and only light handling wear including slight bumping to lower left edge. It doesn’t appear this poster was ever hung up or used. Overall condition is excellent.
