 * Support the notion of having to send the same message in multiple languages ... great example. GerardM (talk) 21:30, 12 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment: doesn't the French version translate differently? I'm reasonably sure, even with the differences in Canadian French, that "Tout le monde peu servir" doesn't mean "How can I server Canada?" - surely 'tout le monde' is 'the whole world'. "Elles servent la France" is a direct translation though. —Vanderdecken∴ ∫ξφ 22:10, 12 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes, the French version is slightly different. 'All the world can serve' or 'Everyone can serve'.  Less specific about who is being served.  Durova Charge! 22:49, 12 February 2009 (UTC)
 * In return, the caption at the bottom is first person: "Let's buy victory bonds" (or literally, "let's subscribe to the borrowing of victory"). Stevage 00:10, 13 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Pas une autre peinture de français! Not another French painting! (err, lithograph) I can confirm Stevage's translation, and while it sounds stuffy literally, it it idiomatic in French.--HereToHelp (talk to me) 00:47, 13 February 2009 (UTC)
 * As long as this difference is noted in the captions (so we don't get more people asking the question I did), Support. —Vanderdecken∴ ∫ξφ 09:31, 13 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Which one came first?--HereToHelp (talk to me) 21:28, 13 February 2009 (UTC)
 * The bibliographic information doesn't state which was designed first. Durova Charge! 21:38, 13 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Support - great visual appeal, historic, vibrant. Cheers, Abraham, B.S. (talk) 07:31, 13 February 2009 (UTC)
