EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a piece of history from the early 20th century - an engraving of "The soldier's alphabet" with the letter R: Awakens. Published by E.R. Stop! in Paris circa 1916, this series of 25 postcards was used by soldiers during the tumultuous years of World War I and into the 1930s.
Measuring at 9.5x14cm, this particular postcard is part of a private collection, offering a glimpse into the daily life and humor found within military barracks during that time period. The image depicts a dormitory scene with soldiers awakening to start their day, surrounded by furniture and linens typical of army living quarters.
The intricate details captured in this engraving showcase not only the practical use of these postcards but also provide insight into the morale and camaraderie shared among troops during challenging times. The alphabet theme adds a playful touch to an otherwise serious setting, reminding us that even in wartime, moments of levity can be found.
As we reflect on this historical artifact, we are reminded of the resilience and spirit displayed by those who served their country during one of its most trying periods. This print serves as a poignant reminder of our past while honoring those who bravely faced uncertain times with courage and determination.
