EDITORS COMMENTS
Amidst the somber backdrop of the First World War, a glimmer of hope and joy shines through in this charming comic postcard from circa 1918. The image captures the moment of pure innocence and anticipation as a little boy eagerly awaits the return of his daddy from the battlefields. With a mischievous grin on his face, the boy playfully teases a curious and adorable puppy, who seems just as excited for the reunion. This delightful scene, reminiscent of the works of renowned Canadian war artist, Donald McGill, adds a touch of humour and lightness to the wartime era. The 1910s were a time of great change and uncertainty, but for this little boy and his faithful companion, the simple joy of their bond provides a beacon of warmth and happiness. This endearing postcard serves as a poignant reminder of the human spirit's ability to find joy even in the most challenging of times.
