EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming WW2 birthday greetings card from the 1940s captures the spirit of resilience and determination during wartime. The illustration features an old man riding a Penny Farthing bicycle, adorned with a soldier's tin hat and satchel, as well as a priority sign hung around his neck. With the words "Full Speed Ahead!" emblazoned across the top, this card exudes a sense of optimism and forward momentum in the face of adversity.
The imagery on this card serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by individuals during World War II, both on the battlefield and at home. Despite the challenges of war, people found ways to celebrate life's milestones such as birthdays with creativity and humor.
The juxtaposition of an elderly man on a vintage bicycle wearing military gear adds whimsy to this piece while also conveying a sense of duty and patriotism. It is a testament to the indomitable human spirit that perseveres even in times of turmoil.
