An early 20th century German advertising poster from World War One, 1914-1918, showing a man sowing coins as if they were seeds. Text: If you want to harvest peace, you must sow -- therefore subscribe to the 8th War Loan. The artist was Ernst Ludwig Franke (1886-1948).

: These posters are often faded, creased and torn, with sections missing. They have therefore been restored as near as possible to their original condition.
