Memorial Day

     In recognition of Memorial Day, I did not want to write a great deal, as not much writing is needed; we all know why this holiday, more than most that occur throughout the year, is important and should be recognized. I decided on a small post, a short show of some of my favorite war-era covers from my personal collection of early twentieth century escapism, the stuff we on the home-front are fortunate enough to have the leisure of reading and enjoying, while Our Boys are overseas, sacrificing blood and limbs, and (as Memorial Day reminds us) often times a great deal more, whether it's the First World War or the Second, the Korean War or all of the other sites of the so-called "Cold War", and beyond.

     From 1776 to Vietnam and up through the present, I sincerely thank you for all you have done, to those who have given their all.
