EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming and humorous print titled "Assorted Salutes" by Alfred Leete, dates back to the tumultuous year of 1918 during the First World War. The print showcases a delightful collection of caricatures depicting various Army types, both soldiers and officers, each engaging in their unique and amusing ways of saluting. The image captures the essence of the British military during this historic period, with each character exuding the spirit and camaraderie of the Tommies. From the exaggeratedly formal officer with a stiff upper lip, to the casual soldier with a cigarette dangling from his mouth, Leete's caricatures offer a lighthearted and entertaining glimpse into the diverse personalities and quirks of the British Army. The use of exaggerated features and humorous details adds to the overall charm of the print, making it a delightful addition to any collection of World War I memorabilia. The intricate details of the uniforms and equipment further enhance the authenticity of the scene, transporting us back in time to the trenches of the Western Front. This print is a testament to the resilience and humor of the soldiers who served during the Great War, and serves as a reminder of the human side of history. The assorted salutes in this print offer a unique and entertaining perspective on the daily life of the British military during this pivotal moment in history.
