Propaganda urging New Zealanders to invest in bombs for the New Zealand Air Force during World War Two.

“We can’t fall back on Antarctica. We’ve got to hit or be hit. And we’ve got to hit hard ...

“Cash down and a money back guarantee... talk in terms of attack... talk in a language the Japs can understand... stop fighting backwards and start fighting back... this week it’s bombs for bombers!”

“17’6 Buys £1 Bond and 10,000 Bonds Buy 1 Bomber”
“£8-15-0 Buys £10 Bond and 10,000 Bonds Buy 10 Bombers”
“£87-10-0 Buys £100 Bond and 10,00 Bonds Buy 100 Bombers”
“Make your money fight!”
