Karl Kae Knecht Cartoon

Description: Uncle Sam stands in front of a tub full of scrap rubber. More items fly into the tub from all sides. Uncle Sam says that if the American people can get enough scrap rubber together for him to make an eraser, he might rub out a notice on the War Bulletins board which says gas rationing is contemplated to save rubber.
