EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative Italian patriotic card dates back to the early 1910s, a time when the Italian peninsula was gripped by the fervor of national pride and the impending storm of World War I. The image on the card depicts a young girl, her eyes filled with determination and a sense of duty, as she reaches out to hand a coin to a brave soldier. The soldier, in turn, holds aloft a flag bearing the insignia of the Italian army, symbolizing the unity and resolve of the Italian people in the face of the great war. The inscription on the card reads, "Give money for the Victory - the victory and the Peace," encapsulating the belief that financial contributions from the populace were essential to underwrite the war effort and secure a triumphant and peaceful outcome. The card's message underscores the importance of collective sacrifice and the belief that every penny saved and invested would help ensure the success of the Italian troops on the battlefield. The image of the girl and soldier is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by ordinary Italians during this period. It speaks to the deep sense of national pride and patriotism that permeated Italian society, as well as the belief that every citizen had a role to play in the war effort. The card's powerful message continues to resonate today, serving as a testament to the enduring power of the human spirit in times of crisis and the importance of coming together to support a common cause. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to a moment when the world was on the brink of change, and the Italian people stood united in their determination to contribute to the war effort and secure a victorious and peaceful future for their nation.
