Next! (Japan) 6th War Loan
A soldier's grimacing face in a camouflaged helmet looms over a map of the Japanese home islands labelled JAPAN, with the 6th War Loan seal at left showing a bomb falling onto a rising-sun flag. The bond drive borrows the stigma of the enemy flag and the soldier's resolve to sell the purchase as the next military blow.

Artist's signature 'Bingham' at right of the soldier's chin. Imprint line at lower left (U.S. Government Printing Office, 1944, with a number) is too small to read reliably.
