EDITORS COMMENTS
Home Front - Intruder Raid: A Little Girl's Surprise Encounter with a Mouse during WW2 Date: 1944 This charming comic postcard captures the essence of the home front during World War 2, as a young girl with bright ginger pigtails reacts with alarm to an unexpected intruder. The scene is set in a cozy living room, with a grand piano taking center stage and a vase of beautiful flowers adding a touch of elegance. The girl, dressed in a cute, frilly dress, has leaped up onto the piano stool, her eyes wide with fear as she gazes at the small brown mouse that has scampered across the room. The mouse, seemingly unfazed by the commotion, continues to explore its new surroundings. The war may have been raging outside, but the home front remained a bastion of domesticity and everyday life. Despite the challenges and hardships of the war, moments of levity and humor continued to emerge, as illustrated in this delightful postcard. The image of a frightened little girl and a curious mouse may seem like an unlikely pairing, but it serves as a reminder that even in the most trying of times, there is always room for a bit of sweet, funny, and humorous moments. The postcard's vintage aesthetic, with its simple yet expressive artwork and charming details, transports us back to a bygone era, allowing us to experience a slice of history through the eyes of a young girl and her furry intruder.
