EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative page from The Sketch magazine, dated 1941, offers a glimpse into the life of Vera Lynn, the beloved "Forces' Sweetheart" of World War II. The photograph captures Vera in her home in Barking, England, as she takes a break from her busy entertainment schedule to tend to her garden and answer fan mail. Amidst the chaos and uncertainty of the war, Vera's voice provided a source of comfort and inspiration to the British people, and her popularity soared. Here, she is seen sorting through a mountain of fan letters, no doubt taking the time to respond to each one personally. But even as she continued to entertain the troops both at home and abroad, Vera found joy in the simple pleasures of everyday life. In between performances, she could be found in her garden, planting cabbage seeds and enjoying the peace and tranquility it offered. Later that year, Vera would return to the stage at the prestigious Palladium Theatre in London to star in the show "Applesauce." Despite her hectic schedule, she remained dedicated to her fans and to bringing a sense of normalcy and hope to those affected by the war. This poignant image serves as a reminder of the resilience and determination of the British people during World War II and the important role that music and entertainment played in lifting their spirits.
