Allied Allies Commemorative Enamel Lettering Pencil Scrap Souvenir Ware
EDITORS COMMENTS
For A SCRAP OF PAPER: A poignant reminder of the sacrifices and unity during the First World War, this vintage war souvenir features a pencil set encased in a red, white, and black enamel box bearing the emblems of the Allied forces. The set, produced in 1914, includes flags of Great Britain, France, Russia, and the United States. The text "For A SCRAP OF PAPER" is inscribed on the box, referencing the famous quote from the Treaty of Versailles that ended the war, which stated that the conflict was fought "for a scrap of paper," signifying the importance placed on the signed agreements and treaties that brought an end to the devastating conflict. This commemorative war souvenir, a piece of historical ware from the wartime era, is a testament to the power of unity and the enduring symbolism of the Allied flags. The pencils, with their sharp points ready for use, serve as a reminder of the importance of recording history and preserving the stories of the past.
