Description:
Original caption reads: "Although her mind is far from vengeance to be wreaked on the Axis powers, this little lady is contributing to their defeat. She has gathered up an old bicycle tire and other odds and ends to contribute to the scrap rubber collection drive. Reclaimed rubber made from these materials is playing an increasingly important part in the war effort. Large percentages of 'reclaims' are now being used in many military articles, such as combat tires, self-sealing gas tanks, etc. Help build up Uncle Sam's rubber scrap pile by contributing any no-longer used rubber articles you may have."
