While Norman Rockwell was the war bond drives’ most notable artist, Irving Berlin was its’ most celebrated composer. In 1941, as his contribution to the national defense effort, Berlin, composer of God Bless America in 1939, wrote Any Bonds Today? This song became the theme song of Treasury's National Defense Savings Program. Many copies of the sheet music were distributed to help the Government make the public aware of the savings bonds and savings stamps program. In publishing this song, Berlin copyrighted it in the name of "Henry Morgenthau, Jr., Secretary of the Treasury, Washington, DC." Among others, the famous Andrews Sisters were the primary performers known for this historic song. The song was also featured in Berlin’s musical “Blue Skies.”
