"UP HOUSEWIVES AND AT 'EM!" - Checkout this 1940 Times Newspaper Advert

This 1940 Times Newspaper Advert was found the other day while working in the 1940 Back Issue Newspaper Archive at Papers Past. This 1940 Newspaper advert was published by The Ministry of Supply during the Second World War and was Thanking all the "Careful Housewives" of the 1940's for all of their recycling efforts. The housewives would recycle the likes of paper, metal and bones to help the war efforts.

The 1940 Times Newspaper Advert reads;

"Put out bones, metal and paper. Put them out separately by your dustbin.
It's not always east to remember that every scrap counts-but it's true. Every scrap does count.
We've started well so keep it going-keep your friends interested-send suggestions to your local council. You are working for victory."

This is what I love about these old 1940 Times Birthday Newspapers as they give you a true insight of what was happening on that exact day back in 1940. That is why these 1940 Back Issue Times Newspapers make such unique Birthday or Anniversary Gifts.
