This vintage original WWII poster was created by the prolific poster artist Adolph Triedler and issued in 1945 to help promote the sale of war bonds in the United States. The image of a wounded soldier with bandaged hand and leg siting under the title CARE is costly communicates to viewers that buying war bonds helps those wounded in service. Treidler produced posters in both the First and Second World Wars and for numerous commercial clients including the Furness Bermuda Line shipping company, Irish Airlines, Pan American Airways, Wells Fargo and others.

This vintage original small poster is folded as issued and looks almost unused with no tape or pinholes and only slight toning from age and modest handling wear. Overall condition is excellent.
