No Possible Doubt Whatever

EDITORS COMMENTS
is a classic and humorous World War I cartoon by renowned British satirical artist, Captain Bruce Bairnsfather. Published in The Bystander magazine in 1916, this iconic image captures the essence of life in the trenches during the dark and uncertain nights of the First World War. The cartoon depicts two British soldiers on sentry duty, huddled together under a makeshift shelter, gazing up at the night sky. The moon and crescent are clearly visible, casting a soft glow over the battlefield. One soldier, with a worried expression, points to the moon and asks his companion, "Do you think it's full, Bill?" The other soldier, with a confident smile, replies, "No possible doubt whatever, Jim." Bairnsfather's signature wit and insightful commentary on the human condition are on full display in this cartoon. The soldiers' conversation about the moon is a clever way to highlight the importance of finding small moments of certainty and reassurance amidst the chaos and uncertainty of war. The use of humor also serves as a reminder of the resilience and camaraderie of the soldiers, even in the most challenging of circumstances. This original print, signed by Captain Bruce Bairnsfather, is a rare and valuable historical artifact. It offers a unique glimpse into the experiences of British soldiers during the First World War and provides a poignant reminder of the human stories that lie behind the history books. The image has become an iconic symbol of the wartime spirit and continues to resonate with audiences today.
