EDITORS COMMENTS
A hearty chuckle from the past: Comic Postcard, Soldier in the British Army, WW2 - They only issue two sizes of shirts in the Army, large --- and very large! This delightful comic postcard from the 1940s, depicts a soldier in the British Army during World War II, poking fun at the supposedly limited sizing options for military uniforms. The soldier, with a mischievous grin, holds up a large-sized shirt next to one labeled "very large," highlighting the supposed challenge of finding the right fit in the army. The image, reminiscent of the iconic Donald McGill postcards, brings a touch of humor and lightness to the wartime era. The soldier's khaki uniform, complete with a peaked cap and a belt, adds to the authenticity of the scene. The postcard's simple yet humorous caption, "They only issue two sizes of shirts in the Army, large --- and very large!" adds to the overall fun and playful tone. This postcard, which dates back to the 1940s, is a testament to the resilient spirit of the soldiers during wartime, their ability to find humor in even the most mundane situations. It also serves as a reminder of the unique fashion challenges faced by the military personnel during that time. With its charming illustration and light-hearted message, this postcard is sure to bring a smile to the faces of history enthusiasts, collectors, and anyone with an appreciation for a good laugh.
