EDITORS COMMENTS
Amidst the harsh realities of World War II, a glimmer of innocence and humor shines through in this charming comic postcard from 1942. On one side, an comically portrayed Nazi soldier, wearing a saucepan on his head, is confronted by two determined boys. The boys, one wielding a makeshift bayonet and the other brandishing a Union flag, stand confidently on the other side of a broken wooden fence. The scarcity of matches during the war is humorously referenced in the caption, as the boys appear undeterred. On the reverse, a message from the Prime Minister, Winston Churchill, reads, "We shall continue steadfast in faith and duty until our task is done." The light-hearted image of children engaging in playful wartime antics offers a poignant reminder of the resilience and spirit of the people during this challenging time. The caricatured artistry of this postcard, credited to Madge Williams, adds to its endearing appeal. The image of the young boy carrying an anarchist bomb, labeled "salmon," adds an unexpected touch of whimsy to the scene. This postcard, published by an unknown company, is a delightful example of the wartime humor that emerged during the 1940s.
