Harry Fecitt Posted November 8, 2008 Posted November 8, 2008 Endorsed on rear: "Egyptian Humour - Serie 1 - No 2"Although Egypt doesn't qualify as "Commonwealth" these two cards fit into this topic.They were part of Series drawn by V. Manavian and printed for sale to British troops.
Harry Fecitt Posted November 8, 2008 Author Posted November 8, 2008 Endorsed on rear: "Egyptian Humour Serie 1 - No 8"Some of the other cards in this series, showing British troops interfacing with local people, are politically incorrect for these modern times.However to myself at least, they are indicative of social attitudes and behaviour during WW1 and are thus of historical interest.
