Colour half tone print of a pastel drawing by Rosina Mantovari Gutti, published as No. 41, by the National War Savings Committee, Salisbury Square, printed by Eyre and Spottiswoode Limited, 1917.
This poster encourages people to buy War Savings Certificates. These were interest-bearing debt securities issued by the government for the purpose of financing the war. They also fostered patriotism by allowing people not working in the military or arms industry to directly support the national war effort.
