Helft uns siegen! (1917 poster)

Helft uns siegen! (1917 poster)

German First World War poster by Fritz Erler for the sixth German war loan of 1917, captioned "Helft uns siegen! zeichnet die Kriegsanleihe" ("Help us win! Subscribe to the war loan"). It shows a German soldier in a steel helmet, with a gas mask and hand grenades, framed by barbed wire and gazing into the distance. A modified version of the image was later used on the cover of the 1929 English edition of Erich Maria Remarque's All Quiet on the Western Front.
