| Description: | Same as catalog # 352753 Screen star Barbara Stanwyck makes moving appeal for all Americans to invest in savings bonds. Sitting behind a desk, Barbara Stanwyck addresses the movie audiences. "Friends I'm glad were all here where I can talk to you personality about something we all know is important. I needen't tell you that savings is a vital part of our national security and of our countries too. When I save it is to do two things, I can save where I know it is safe and its value can only go in one direction. Up. Naturally for these reasons I save United States Savings Bonds. It's the only investment I know of where you absolutely cannot loose. Anytime you have to cash a bond for an emergency. You get every penny back that you put in, plus interest. And when you hold the bonds to maturity you get back four dollars for every three you invested. You never have to check the market page to see how your doing, you know. Your entitled to know your savings are safe and secure and earning extra dollars for you as time goes on. Get what your titled to. Save regularly with United States Savings Bonds. It's easy, save before you spend. You save what you cant loose and your banking with Uncle Sam. Thank you."
