Contents from a Mid War Red Cross Food Parcel for P.O.W.s , factory made dummies for use during Red Cross Week fund raising events..... only ever saw one of these before, many years ago and this may well be the same one....few small items missing like cigs and chocolate........ tins are the hardest to find.Have included couple of wartime pics of Red Cross Food Parcels to compare ........ Ignore last ration picture, that shows American Red Cross Food Parcel
Hi dear, the last photo on the right was published in "POW" by Adrian Gilbert, John Murray, London 2006.
They must have taken it from an original wartime publication, it is where I get my ref photos from and from where that picture was taken. I have quite a few different including D day 24 hr ration details...... never use modern produced photos, over the years have seen too many mistakes included in collections of rations....... Also have many details on original rations that have come my way over last 30 yrs or so...
