    Caption: "A Tank from the Liberty Bond Train." Shows a Renault FT Tank, a small French tank with caterpillar-style propulsion used during World War I. This tank was displayed as part of the fifth Liberty Bond Drive, held in 1919. During World War I, the U.S. government raised funds for the war by issuing "liberty bonds." Liberty Bond Trains crisscrossed the country to encourage purchase of the bonds. Citizens who purchased the bonds could later redeem them for the purchase price plus interest.
