EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: A 1940s Christmas Greeting: A Torn-Edge Cream Card from Dr. and Mrs. A.M. Watts of Broadstairs, 1943 2. Description: This evocative Christmas postcard, hailing from the 1940s, features a simple yet elegant design, crafted on a cream card with a textured, torn-edge border. The card is printed in crisp, black ink, exuding an air of nostalgia and charm. The message inside is penned by Dr. and Mrs. A.M. Watts of Broadstairs, dated 1943. 3. Object and Material: The postcard is a single, horizontal image, measuring approximately 14.8 x 10.2 cm (5.8 x 4 inches), with a white background that contrasts beautifully with the beige card and black text. The card's texture is a testament to the artisanal craftsmanship of the era, while the torn edge border adds a touch of rustic authenticity. 4. Image and Composition: The front view of the card does not reveal an overtly festive image, instead opting for a more subtle, understated design. The absence of commercial imagery or branding adds to the card's timeless appeal. 5. Historical Context: Dated 1943, this Christmas card was created during a pivotal moment in history. The Second World War was in full swing, and the spirit of community and connection was more important than ever. This card serves as a poignant reminder of the simple joys and traditions that endured even amidst the hardships of wartime. 6. Text and Message: The message inside the card, penned by Dr. and Mrs. Watts, adds a personal touch to this historical artifact. The black text, printed in a clear, legible font, conveys the warmth and good wishes of the season, offering a glimpse into the lives of those who lived through this extraordinary time.
