The Shot That Will Win The War | Poster | Wisconsin Historical Society
Poster featuring a cartoon illustration of three men riding on a bomb. The bullet is labeled: "Industrial Co-operation," and the men are Uncle Sam, a Wage Payer, and a Wage Earner. Flying over them is an eagle, which is holding a banner that says: "Victory." A cartoon blackbird is riding on the front of the bomb and commenting: "This shot will win the war!" Poster text reads: "<b>THE SHOT THAT WILL WIN THE WAR</b> United action by America's industrial partners will shorten and win this struggle for human freedom. It is the heaviest shot our Democracy can fire at wage-earners' and wage-payers' common foe — Autocracy. EVERY LOYAL WORKER AND EMPLOYER CAN RIDE TO VICTORY UNDER THE EAGLE'S WINGS WITH UNCLE SAM."
