Description
English: First World War enlistment poster from Canada. Yiddish-language poster shows a soldier cutting the bonds from a Jewish man, who strains to join a group of soldiers running in the distance and says, "You have cut my bonds and set me free - now let me help you set others free!" Above are portraits of Rt. Hon. Herbert Samuel, Viscount Reading, and Rt. Hon. Edwin S. Montagu, all Jewish members of the British parliament. Text continues: Enlist with the infantry reinforcement for overseas under the command of Captain [Isidor] Freedman, Headquarters, 786 St. Lawrence Boulevard, Montreal.
ייִדיש: "האבט איבערהאקט מיינע קייטען און מיר פרייא געמאכט. וויל איך יעצט העלפען אנדערע געפרייען"
עברית: כרזה ביידיש המראה חייל המסיר את כבליו של יהודי, האומר "שחררו מעלי את כבלי והפכתי לבן חורין, כעת אסייע לשחרורם של האחרים".

בגוף הכרזה נאמר: "יהודי העולם כולו שואפים לחירות, הקריבו למענה ומוכנים להמשיך לעשות זאת.
אנגליה מצפה מכל יהודי למלא את חובתו.

התגייסו ל-Infantray Reinforcements בפיקודו של קפטן איזידור פרידמן."
