I need to find out about War Bonds and Defense Bonds from 1941. Where I can I find more information?

First check out Herb Kugel’s article on About.com, Home Front 1941-45: Buy War Bonds. Kugel’s long article gives a complete picture of the early history of Savings Bonds.
Then, just for fun, check out these images of War Bond posters maintained by the Northwestern University library.

Virtually every question about Savings Bonds has been asked and answered on this site multiple times.
