Convoy Your Country to Victory: Buy Defence Bonds at Banks and Post Offices
Description
British Second World War poster promoting the sale of defence bonds. The poster depicts a British Merchant Navy convoy at sea, seen from the deck of a British warship. Two sailors stand on the deck, under a White British Naval Ensign, looking at the convoy. The poster plays on the word 'convoy', telling the audience that they can 'convoy' their country to victory, whilst a shipping convoy is depicted.
