EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a piece of musical history from the World War II era. The illustrated WW2 music sheet cover for "Wings Over The Navy" features words by Johnny Mercer and music by Harry Warren, showcasing the patriotic spirit of the time.
The image depicts Henry Hall and his orchestra, who famously featured and broadcasted this stirring composition. Their portrait photograph exudes a sense of camaraderie and determination, reflecting the resilience of those serving in the navy during wartime.
The intricate details on the cover art transport us back to circa 1939, when this song would have been a source of inspiration for many. As we gaze upon this piece from the March of the Women Collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, we are reminded of the power that music has to uplift spirits and unite communities in times of struggle.
With its depiction of wings symbolizing freedom and strength, alongside references to naval forces, this music cover serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made during World War II. It is a testament to the enduring legacy of those who served their country with courage and honor.
