EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of history - the "Keep a Pig" poster from the Small Pig Keepers Council during wartime. In this visually striking illustration, we see a man donning a cardigan and hat, holding a bucket filled with slops for his beloved pig. The message behind this poster is clear: by keeping pigs, we can save waste and make food during times of war. During World War II, when resources were scarce and rationing was in full effect, communities were encouraged to keep livestock as an essential means of sustenance. Pigs became valuable assets in gardens across the nation, providing families with much-needed nourishment while reducing food wastage. The image beautifully captures the spirit of resilience and resourcefulness that defined those challenging times. It serves as a reminder of how ordinary individuals played their part in supporting their country's war efforts through small yet significant actions. As we gaze upon this historical gem, it transports us back to an era where every contribution mattered. It symbolizes the collective determination to overcome adversity and highlights the ingenuity required to sustain ourselves amidst turmoil. This print not only preserves an important moment from our past but also inspires us to reflect on our own ability to adapt and find solutions in difficult circumstances. Let it serve as a testament to human strength and unity during times of struggle – reminding us that even in the face of adversity, there is always hope for brighter days ahead.
