A Message from the Past

A Message from the Past
I spotted this "vintage" poster in an antique shop window.................I think the message is still just as important nowadays.:-)

This type of poster would have been issued by the Ministry of Health during WW2 - but I think this one is probably a (bad) copy :-)

Nouchetdu38, Fred Fouarge, John FitzGerald, Berny and 7 other people have particularly liked this photo

I love these genuine vintage posters. Funny how these things come around again Keith! I had my C-19 booster today at Haynes Motor Museum....that looks a great place to visit! I look forward to seeing the record store pic :-))

Glad you like it Rosa and thanks.

Good to hear you got your C-19 booster jab. We should be called forward for ours soon (and for the flue-jab of course). Hopefully that will prevent us from getting it again.

Great find, But aren't handkerchiefs extinct? Over here these days you're supposed to cough into the crook of your arm. Making your shirt or coat a health hazard.

I think they're pretty much a thing of the past.............thank heavens, they were such unhygienic things. Coughing into your shirt of coat is just as grotty!

Just like Canada we are supposed to cough or sneeze into the crook of our arm......then we put our arm around our best friend to show them how much we love them!!
