The picture below shows a larger view of this 1944 United States World War II 4th War Loan War Bonds Home Front Paper Advertisement. The ad is like a miniature poster. It would have been pasted on anything, but more likely on store or home windows to promote Homefront civilians to buy more War Bonds. The ad is not dated, but the Fourth War Loan Drive was from January 18th to February 15th, 1944. It is in patriotic red, white, and blue, with a shield, stars, and is marked on one side as follows:

WE BOUGHT EXTRA WAR BONDS
4TH
WAR LOAN

The different drives were conducted on the following dates: First War Loan Drive: Nov. 30 to Dec. 23, 1942; Second War Loan Drive: Apr. 12 to May 1, 1943; Third War Loan Drive: Sep. 9 to Oct. 1, 1943; Fourth War Loan Drive: Jan. 18 to Feb. 15, 1944; Fifth War Loan Drive: June 12 to July 8, 1944; Sixth War Loan Drive: Nov. 20 to Dec. 16, 1944; Seventh War Loan Drive: May 14 to June 30, 1945; Victory Loan Drive: Oct. 29 to Dec. 8, 1945.

By the end of the war, 85 million Americans (out of a population of 131 million) had purchased $185.7 billion dollars of bonds – over $2,000 per person, at a time when the average income was $2,000 per year. The patriotism and personal sacrifice of the average citizen played a significant part in the Allied war effort.

The War Bonds advertisement measures about 5-1/4'' x 5-7/8''. It appears to be in excellent condition as pictured with a single horizontal fold in the center.
