We are looking at a WWII Patriotic VE Day Postcard Cover listing I’m seeing on Ebay given today marks the 72nd Anniversary of VE Day May 08, 1945.
Two years ago I wrote my blog post on Remembering 70th Anniversary of VE Day. I’m including this photo from that blog post – “Winston Churchill waves to crowds in Whitehall in London as they celebrate VE Day, 8 May 1945”
WWII Patriotic VE Day Postcard Cover
It is interesting to note the disclaimer the seller has for their VE Day Postcard Cover being shown.
“WWII Patriotic Fidelity Stamp VE Day Postcard w/Covers For Sale not postmarked on VE Day in Washington D.C. but on May 14, 1945, offering cover from VE Day and other patriotic themes for sale. “
And you will want to check out The National WWII Museum VE Day one-page fact sheet http://www.nationalww2museum.org/assets/pdfs/ve-day-fact-sheet.pdf.
