EDITORS COMMENTS
For Evermore: A Charming WW2-Era Comic Postcard This delightful WW2-era comic postcard, titled 'For Evermore,' showcases the lighter side of life on the home front during the Second World War. The image on the front depicts a RAF Regiment soldier diligently peeling potatoes in a tented camp, while a mischievous little boy playfully tries to steal a peeled potato. The soldier, with a smile on his face, seems to have accepted the interruption as part of the job, as the caption reads, 'Ground facilities for the fly boys was the responsibility of the RAF Regiment.' On the back of the postcard, a heartfelt message from the British Prime Minister adds a poignant touch to the otherwise light-hearted scene. 'We shall continue steadfast in faith and duty until our task is done,' the message reads, reminding us of the unwavering resolve and determination of the British people during the war. The postcard, with its charming illustration and thoughtful message, is a testament to the resilience and innocence of the human spirit, even in the face of adversity. The artwork is by Raphael Tuck and Sons, a renowned British publishing company known for their high-quality prints and postcards. This particular postcard was published circa 1943, making it a precious piece of history. This postcard is not only a fun and amusing collectible but also a reminder of the sacrifices made during the war and the importance of staying steadfast in the face of challenges. The enduring appeal of this charming postcard lies in its ability to evoke feelings of nostalgia, innocence, and hope.
