EDITORS COMMENTS
reads the witty caption on this charming WW2-era comic postcard from 1943. The image features two young girls, dressed in typical 1940s attire, sitting on a bench and intently focused on their knitting. Their rosy cheeks and innocent expressions add to the light-hearted and amusing tone of the scene. The girls' conversation seems to revolve around the challenges of mending worn-out clothes, a common reality for families during the war years. With the tagline "They have been darning since 1941," the caption adds a layer of humor and relatability to the image, as it suggests that the girls have been mending clothes for so long that they're now down to the very last darns. This delightful postcard, published by Valentine & Sons, Dundee, and created by the talented artist Mabel Lucie Attwell, offers a glimpse into the daily lives and resilient spirit of children during the WW2 era. The image captures the innocence and playful nature of childhood, even amidst the hardships and challenges of wartime. The postcard's enduring appeal lies in its ability to evoke a sense of nostalgia and warmth, reminding us of a simpler time in history.
