EDITORS COMMENTS
This WW2 greetings card from the March of the Women Collection is a unique piece of history that captures the spirit of hope and good fortune during wartime. The black cat, adorned with a tin hat, symbolizes luck and protection in the face of adversity, while the horseshoes further reinforce this message of positivity. Dating back to the 1940s, this charming card serves as a reminder of the resilience and unity that defined World War II. In a time marked by uncertainty and fear, gestures like sending greeting cards were small yet meaningful ways to show support for loved ones on the front lines or at home. The intricate details on this card showcase not only its artistic value but also its historical significance. From the carefully drawn cat to the delicate shading on each horseshoe, every element tells a story of courage and camaraderie in challenging times. As we look back on this era through artifacts like this WW2 greetings card, we are reminded of the sacrifices made by so many and inspired by their unwavering determination to overcome obstacles. May this image serve as a tribute to all those who fought for freedom and peace during one of humanity's darkest hours.
