# Pour hâter la Victoire et pour nous revoir bientôt, Souscrivez ! (To hasten Victory and to see each other again soon, subscribe!)

Two women embrace in the foreground, one raising an arm in greeting or farewell, each wearing a tricolour cockade, above a handwritten-style appeal to subscribe to the 1918 National Loan. The poster ties a bank's subscription desk to the hope of reunion and victory; the tell of transfer is the emotional scene of separated families standing in for the financial transaction.
