Collector Bookstore is a retailer of new books located in Leavenworth, Kansas. We specialize in price guides and reference books for the antiques and collectibles industry. Table of Contents For those living in Britain between 1939 and 1945, the war was an ever-present reality: Frationing, the black out, the blitz; all had to be endured. The whole nation was mobilized to meet the aerial onslaught, to beat the invader, and to become self-sufficient in food and materials. Every object manufactured during the war had a purpose; functional, like gasmasks, ARP uniforms and ration books; or intended to boost morale, like chamber pots decorated with pictures of Hitler, and toys, books and games for children. Such objects became commonplace in homes throughout Britain but they were often fragile or ephemeral, and for this reason many have become rare, and all are highly collectable. Peter Doyle and Paul Evans have put together a huge selection of objects associated with the Home Front, each one superbly illustrated and described in detail. This book is a treasure trove of information for collectors, and for anyone interested in the Home Front, particularly those who lived through it, for whom it will be a feast of nostalgia.
