Fruits of Freedom - A Tribute to a Free America during World War II
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative postal cover envelope from 1941, titled "Fruits of Freedom: A Free America," is a poignant symbol of hope and resilience during a pivotal moment in American history. The cover, passed by a US Army examiner on January 2, 1942, features a vibrant and abundant cornucopia overflowing with various fruits, symbolizing the rich bounty and freedom that America offers its people. The backdrop of the image is a star-studded blue sky, with the American flag proudly waving in the foreground. The red and white stripes of the flag are subtly incorporated into the design, adding to the patriotic theme. The envelope was sent from Jamaica, Queens, New York, and bears a postmark from Gimbels, a well-known department store in the city. The cover's inscription, "Fruits of Freedom," serves as a reminder of the values that the United States was fighting to protect during World War II. The phrase "A Free America" further emphasizes the importance of preserving individual liberties and democratic ideals. As the world was embroiled in the chaos of war, this postal cover offers a glimpse into the spirit of optimism and determination that defined the American people during this period. The image of the cornucopia, filled to the brim with an array of fruits, represents the promise of abundance and prosperity that America offered its citizens, even in the face of adversity. This Fruits of Freedom cover is a powerful reminder of the enduring strength and resilience of the American people during World War II.
