EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative WWII Christmas card, produced by Dried Milk Products in 1942, showcases a heartwarming design that speaks to the spirit of resilience and hope during a time of great hardship. The card, featuring the logos of Cow & Gate and Home Counties Dairies, is adorned with a red triangle and star, symbols of the British Priority Production Scheme, which ensured essential goods were produced during the war. The card's design is simple yet effective, with a holly wreath encircling the border and a triangular star at its center. The muted color palette, dominated by deep reds and greens, adds to the card's vintage charm. The message inside reads, "With all good wishes for a Happy Christmas and a Peaceful New Year," a sentiment that would have held particular significance during the tumultuous times of the Second World War. The use of dried milk products, which were in high demand during the war due to rationing, further emphasizes the card's connection to wartime Britain. This poignant piece of ephemera offers a glimpse into the past, reminding us of the enduring power of tradition and community during times of adversity.
