One of the biggest wartime shows in the United States is the daily entertainment at Victory House in Pershing Square. Thousands of War Saving stamps and bond buyers like the crowd above, are shown making a pledge to buy more and more bonds and stamps and affirm their faith in America. Film stars, fraternal organizations, civic leders and business houses combine to make the show a success. Photo dated: July 2, 1942.
