1918 WWI Happy Jacks Thrift Club War Savings Stamp Book PRISTINE COLLECTIBLE NM: $37.95
The 1918 WWI Happy Jacks Thrift Club War Savings Stamp Book was a program designed to encourage children to save money to support the war effort. The program was created by Thornton W. Burgess, a conservationist and author of children\'s stories, and Harrison Cady, a cartoonist and illustrator.
The program featured a character named Happy Jack Squirrel, who was a thrifty and patriotic squirrel. Children were encouraged to join the Happy Jacks Thrift Club by purchasing a War Savings Stamp, which cost 25 cents. When a child had saved enough War Savings Stamps to fill a stamp book, they could exchange it for a War Bond, which was a type of loan that the government used to fund the war effort.
The Happy Jacks Thrift Club was a popular program, and it helped to raise millions of dollars for the war effort. The program also taught children the importance of saving money and supporting their country.
The Happy Jacks Thrift Club War Savings Stamp Book was typically a small, stapled booklet with a cover illustration of Happy Jack Squirrel. The inside of the booklet contained information about the program, as well as spaces for children to paste their War Savings Stamps.
The Happy Jacks Thrift Club War Savings Stamp Book is a valuable piece of Americana. It is a reminder of the sacrifices that were made by Americans during World War I, and it is also a testament to the power of children to make a difference.
