"Bundles for Berlin": More Production!
Two airmen in coveralls lift a yellow bomb into the bay of a bomber under the headline 'Bundles for Berlin' and the demand 'More Production!'. The sheet ties factory output to a bomb loaded by smiling crews, and uses the 'bundles' phrase of the home-front parcel drives for the payload.
