Original wartime National Savings poster by Ernest Herbert Whydale. This uncommon poster, featuring a famer preparing the soil with a horse drawn plough, was issued on behalf of the government to encourage small investors to participate in the National Savings scheme and thereby ‘Prepare Now to Profit Later’. Whydale was a well-known commercial and fine artist, especially noted for his equine paintings. A higher resolution image is available for viewing on request.
