The Capitals of the Commonwealth Original National Savings Poster c. 1950 Printed for HSMO by J.Howitt & Son 76x50cm Lithographic poster The National Savings Movement, which we know so well, has its counterpart in every one of the other self-governming countries of the Commonwealth.

It is a sure way to self reliance and confidence in the future. We must play our part by continuing to support our own National Savings Movement.
