EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage wartime Creamola advertisement from the 1940s is a charming glimpse into the past, showcasing a time when food products were rationed and creativity was key in promoting new items to the public. The illustrated ad promotes Creamola, a pudding made without eggs, as "the people's friend" during annual food shortages.
During World War II, Glasgow-based company Creamola faced challenges like many others in providing for their customers amidst rationing and scarcity. This advertisement cleverly highlights how their product could still bring joy and satisfaction to households despite the limitations of wartime.
The vibrant colors and playful design of this print capture the spirit of resilience and innovation that defined this era. It serves as a reminder of the ingenuity and resourcefulness of individuals and businesses during times of hardship.
As we look back on history through images like these, we are reminded of the sacrifices made by so many during WWII and appreciate the efforts made to keep spirits high even in difficult circumstances. The March of Women Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online has preserved this piece of history for us to reflect upon and remember those who lived through such challenging times.
