The 25 Club [2], 1944 Canada poster: Open booklet

The 25 Club [2]

Open booklet: a 1944 calendar with redeemable dates circled in red on the left, and on the right the 'THE "25 CLUB"' text describing patriotic citizens who pledge a 25-cent War Savings Stamp each week. The tell is the club and pledge language ('an organization of patriotic citizens', 'such an easy pledge to keep'), which uses membership and virtue words in place of a figure for what the stamps fund.

THE "25 CLUB"
The "25 CLUB" is an organization of patriotic citizens who have voluntarily pledged themselves to purchase, at least one 25 cent War Savings Stamp each week. Your acceptance of this book indicates your willingness to become a member of the Club and to fulfill the pledge. Remove each leaf of the booklet as it is completed and exchange the 16 Stamps at any bank or post office for a $5.00 War Savings Certificate.

This is such an easy pledge to keep. You won't miss the 25 cents-yet as week after week your accumulation of Stamps and Certificates grows, you will be absolutely thrilled
