Item Number: 6629
Title: Stop them with BONDS
Artist: Sgt. Ardis Hughes
Date: 1944
Size: 22"x28"
Comments: Extremely rare WWII 5th War Loan poster by Ardis Hughes, an illustrator for Esquire before the war. Really unusual image of fearful Hitler and Tojo cowering against a wall covered with War Bonds. Kind of scary, not colorful, very creepy...and I am sure not popular with the intended subject matter. So my guess very few printed, I never knew of it before finding this specimen. Printed in green, not faded just the way intended. Collectors love posters featuring caricatures of Axis leaders this is one you probably won't see again
