EDITORS COMMENTS
This WW2-era envelope, titled "Wings to Win," is a prime example of the powerful propaganda art that emerged during the second world war. Circa 1943, this envelope was likely used for official correspondence during the height of America's involvement in the global conflict. The striking image on the envelope features an eagle in flight, its wings outstretched and adorned with stars and stripes, symbolizing the nation's unwavering commitment to victory. The eagle clutches a banner in its talons that reads "Wings to Win," a call to action that encourages citizens to support the war effort and contribute to the victory from the home front. The envelope's design is reminiscent of the iconic "I Want You" poster featuring Uncle Sam, which also served to galvanize American patriotism during this pivotal time in history. The envelope's cachet, or cancellation mark, bears the image of a bomber plane, further emphasizing the military's role in securing victory. This envelope is not only a beautiful piece of stationery but also a historical artifact that offers a glimpse into the spirit of resilience and determination that defined the American experience during WW2.
