Wartime Advertisments from the Collection of Tony Langley

For the last decade I have been most fortunate to have Tony Langley of Antwerp, Belgium, as a contributing editor to all of my publications. Today we are sharing some of images featuring products to send to British Tommies at the Front.

  1. How appropriate to feature a Wrigley's ad since Wrigley Field tonight hosts its first World Series game since 1945.

  2. I have a WW1 era bottle of Lea & Perrins in my collection. Complete with glass stopper and residue of the sauce inside. I could send an image if wanted.

  3. I remember drinking Horlicks as a warm night-time drink when growing up in England. It's delicious--and it's still available!

  4. How wonderful! I think these glimpses into everyday life help to humanize immense events in history.
