***Come and get it!***
This is an **authentic WWII United States War bond handbill** from the spring of 1943, urging Californians to buy extra war bonds during the 2nd War Bond Drive that launched in April of that year.
A great addition to those who collect US history and WWII paper ephemera, this bill promotes fear of a hypothetical Japanese air raid invasion, with the top text featuring intimidating Asian-style lettering above the main heading to visually invoke an enemy threat.
The threat of \"Jap bombers\" show the real-at-the-time, heightened anxiety for those living on the West Coast of the US.
Measuring 5\" X 7 3/4\" and from a smoke-free home, this handbill has horizontal and vertical fold creases that are consistent with how this paper was stored or mailed.
There is some light wear, but in amazing shape for an item that\'s 83 years old!
