EDITORS COMMENTS
Wool without coupons: A delightful glimpse into the light-hearted world of wartime humour, this charming comic postcard from 1947 depicts two cute and innocent little girls proudly holding up a freshly knitted dress made of 'wool without coupons.' Although the card was posted in the year following the end of World War II, the drawing poignantly captures the essence of the clothes rationing era that persisted until 1949. The girls' playful expression and the artist's skillful caricature evoke a sense of innocence and fun, offering a sweet escape from the harsh realities of the time. Published by Dundee's renowned Mabel Lucie Attwell, this postcard is a testament to the power of art to bring joy and amusement even during the most challenging periods in history. The drawing features the signature whimsical style of Attwell, whose work was popular during the interwar period and beyond. The image of the girls knitting, a common sight during the war years, adds to the authenticity of the scene and serves as a reminder of the resourcefulness and resilience of the British people during the 1940s. This postcard not only offers a glimpse into the past but also showcases the enduring appeal of wartime humour and the innocence of childhood. A must-have for any collector of World War II memorabilia or those interested in the social history of the era.
