EDITORS COMMENTS
Food Flash: A Light-Hearted Look into the World of Wartime Rationing - 1944 Amidst the backdrop of the Second World War, this charming comic postcard captures the essence of wartime humour and the spirit of resilience. The image shows two young girls, their faces filled with excitement and curiosity, as they discuss the latest rationing news. The year was 1942, and even sweets had joined the list of rationed items. The girls, dressed in typical 1940s attire, are shown leaning over a ration book, their shopping baskets filled with various items. The artist, Raphael Tuck, masterfully captures their innocence and the playful nature of the scene. The girls' expressions convey a sense of fun and amusement, a stark contrast to the harsh realities of wartime life. The caption, "Food Flash," adds to the light-hearted tone of the postcard. The use of the word "flash" suggests the latest and most up-to-date information, making the girls' conversation all the more intriguing. The caricatured style of the artwork further adds to the postcard's appeal, making it a delightful reminder of a time when humor and innocence found a way to shine through even in the darkest of times. This postcard, published by Raphael Tuck and Dinah, is a testament to the enduring power of art and humor to bring joy and levity to our lives, even in the most challenging of circumstances.
