EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative WW2 Christmas card features a powerful image of the Victory Signal, a flaghoist sequence used by Admiral Nelson at the pivotal Battle of Trafalgar in 1805. The iconic signal, which reads 'England expects,' is recreated here with meticulous attention to detail, each flag meticulously arranged to spell out the first two words. The image is set against a backdrop of a clear blue sky, with sails billowing in the wind and ships silhouetted against the horizon. The card harks back to a time of heroism and patriotism, when the British Navy stood as a symbol of strength and resilience. The message 'England expects that every man will do his duty' resonated deeply with the British people during the dark days of WW2, as they faced the challenges of war with unwavering determination. The intricate rigging and sailing details add to the historical authenticity of the design, making this a truly unique and captivating piece of ephemera and correspondence from the 1940s.
