This is the third in the series of posters issued by Schulte Cigar Stores promoting Thrift Stamps to support the Allied war effort in World War I. Another symbol of American military power dominates the image here, this time the Class-B Standardized Military Truck, commonly known as the “Liberty Truck,” designed in 1917 to replace a disparate range of military vehicles.
