EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming WW2-era comic postcard, circa 1940, features a light-hearted scene of two children proudly displaying their patchwork clothing, with the caption "We have no Coupons." The image pokes fun at the rationing system during the war, when clothing coupons were essential to purchase new garments. However, as the text below the image reminds us, what matters most is the camaraderie and spirit of the time. The reverse side of the postcard includes a Prime Ministerial exhortation, encouraging the reader to remain steadfast in faith and duty until the task of the war is completed. The adorable caricature of children, with their innocent and covered-in-patches attire, represents the innocence and resilience of the population during this challenging period. The children's mending efforts and cuddle illustrate the resourcefulness and unity that characterized the wartime spirit, both at home and at the front. This postcard, published by Dundee artist Mabel Lucie Attwell, is a testament to the enduring power of wartime humor and the importance of maintaining morale during difficult times. The image of the children, with their mended clothes and strong bond, is a reminder of the unbreakable spirit that carried people through the hardships of the 2nd World War.
