EDITORS COMMENTS
This print dates back to March 1918 and showcases a humorous exchange between a soldier and a woman during World War I. The setting is a "washout," a term used by soldiers to describe a place where they couldn't obtain Army Club cigarettes, a popular brand at the time. The soldier, with a determined look in his eyes, tells the woman, "Tell me, what do you boys call a washout?" To which she responds, "A place where one can't get Army Club cigarettes." The cartoon, featuring the signature of Will Owen on the reverse, offers a glimpse into the daily banter and camaraderie among soldiers during the First Great War. The historical significance of this print lies in its portrayal of the importance of cigarettes as a morale booster for the troops, and the creative ways they found to obtain them despite the challenges of the battlefield. This print is not only an intriguing piece of military history but also a charming reminder of the resilience and humor of those who served during WWI.
