All Quiet on the Home Front
EDITORS COMMENTS
- This charming WW2-era comic postcard, dated 1942, evokes a sense of sweet innocence amidst the tumultuous backdrop of war. The title derives from the famous song "All Quiet along the Potomac tonight," which was first written during the American Civil War and later repeated during WW1 in the novel "All Quiet on the Western Front" by Erich Maria Remarque. On the reverse side of this postcard, a heartfelt message from the British Prime Minister reads, "We shall continue steadfast in faith and duty until our task is done." The image on the front features a group of cute children engaging in a light-hearted scene. A caricatured little boy, wearing a hoop around his neck and gagged, is confronted by a salmon, with the caption "Published by Salmon, Artist Madge Williams." Despite the seriousness of the time, this postcard serves as a reminder of the importance of maintaining a sense of humor and hope during wartime. The innocence and amusing nature of the image offer a brief respite from the harsh realities of the world around them. This unique piece of history is a testament to the resilience and determination of the human spirit, even in the face of adversity.
