EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a rare and intriguing Fums-Up charm from the First World War era, circa 1914. The charm, a commemorative piece of WWI history, is fashioned in the form of a doll with a wooden head and moving metal arms. The term "Fums-Up" is believed to have originated from the British military slang for a failed or botched attempt, reflecting the lighthearted spirit of soldiers during the harsh realities of war. The doll-like charm, with its expressive wooden face and articulated metal limbs, was a popular memento among soldiers during the Great War. The intricate details of the wooden head and the smooth, polished metal arms suggest the skillful craftsmanship that went into creating these charms. The Fums-Up charm was a unique way for soldiers to commemorate their experiences and carry a piece of the war with them long after they returned home. The charm's playful name and whimsical design offer a glimpse into the human side of military history, reminding us of the resilience and humor of those who lived through the First World War. The commemorative ware, as seen in this photo print, is a valuable historical artifact that offers a tangible connection to a pivotal moment in military history. The Fums-Up charm is a testament to the ingenuity, creativity, and resourcefulness of the soldiers who carried these charms with them, and serves as a poignant reminder of the human spirit that endured during the First World War.
