EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph from 1939 showcases an advertisement for Harrods' special selection of gifts for H.M. Forces. The image, filled with a sense of wartime camaraderie and practicality, highlights various essential items that would have been useful for soldiers during World War II. In the foreground, a group of men, dressed in uniform, are gathered around a table, carefully examining the Harrods' catalog. The items on the table include a range of knitted cardigans and pullovers, khaki shirts, upper boots, tan cape leather gloves, suede leather cardigan, socks, balaclava helmet scarves, and proofed poplin under jackets. These items were designed to keep the soldiers warm and protected during their service, making them invaluable gifts for the H.M. Forces. The advertisement, with its simple yet effective design, emphasizes the importance of the gifts in the context of the war. The headline, "Gifts for H.M. Forces," is prominently displayed, while the subheading, "Service Cardigan and Pullovers, Khaki Shirts, Upper Boots, Tan Cape Leather Gloves, Suede Leather Cardigan, Socks, Balaclava Helmet Scarf, Proofed Poplin Under Jacket," lists the various items available. The photograph, a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made during the war, offers a glimpse into the daily lives of soldiers and the importance of practical, functional gifts during this time. The image, with its focus on the Harrods' offerings, also highlights the role that businesses played in supporting the war effort by providing essential items to the troops.
