Giftware Helmets Labelled Nest Pair Perched Valentines Visible Warden Wardens

EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming WW2 Valentines greetings card from the 1940s features a delightful illustration of two love birds wearing warden's helmets, perched on a branch. The whimsical design captures the spirit of wartime romance, with the nest labeled A.I. Post visible on the right side. During World War II, sending Valentine's cards was a way for loved ones to express their affection and support despite the challenges of war. This unique card combines both love and duty, as even the birds are dressed in protective gear symbolizing their role as wardens during this tumultuous time. The intricate details of this card reflect the care and thoughtfulness that went into creating such sentimental gestures during WWII. It serves as a reminder of the resilience and strength of those who lived through this period in history, finding moments of joy and connection amidst uncertainty. As part of the March of Women Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, this print is not just a piece of artwork but also a historical artifact that tells a story about love and perseverance during one of the most challenging times in modern history.
