EDITORS COMMENTS

This print captures a powerful moment in Sheffield's history during World War II. Titled "Sheffield Remembers! Sheffield Hits Back!", the image showcases an advertisement for the city's Wings for Victory Week, which took place from 29th May to 5th June 1943. The photograph depicts a large billboard adorned with bold letters that read, "Yes! Sheffield remembers those tragic nights of December 1940". It serves as a poignant reminder of the devastating bombings that struck the city during the Blitz. However, this advertisement offers hope and resilience as it urges citizens to unite and take action. The message on the billboard calls upon the people of Sheffield to invest £4,000,000 in National Savings to fund the purchase of 100 four-engined Lancaster Bombers. This collective effort would contribute significantly to Wings for Victory – a campaign aimed at strengthening Britain's air force capabilities. Published by Sheffield Savings Committee, this historical artifact stands as evidence of how communities rallied together amidst adversity. The original print is now housed at Sheffield Local Studies Library: MP 1426 M), serving as a testament to both local pride and wartime determination. This print not only commemorates an important chapter in Sheffield's past but also symbolizes unity and resilience in times of crisis.
