Their fates intertwined like Romeo & Juliet's ill-fated love story that ended in death. During the turmoil of World War II, a comic postcard emerged as a symbol of longing for loved ones left behind. The yearning to see them again echoed through time. Meanwhile, Jones found solace in comedy with "Why Jones believes in the Sea Serpent. " This two-act play brought laughter during uncertain times with its vibrant chromolitho illustrations. Propaganda posters from that era carried powerful messages; one read "Stalin trusts us" instilling belief in their cause. Trust became essential when facing adversity head-on.
