EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the illustrated WW2 music sheet cover for "Shine On Victory Moon," a patriotic song written by Jos Geo Gilbert and featured and broadcast by Hatton and Manners during the 1940s. The artwork on the cover depicts a shining moon symbolizing victory, perfectly capturing the spirit of hope and resilience during World War II.
In the portrait photograph, we see Hatton and Manners themselves, who were instrumental in popularizing this uplifting tune that undoubtedly brought comfort to many during such tumultuous times. Their dedication to spreading positivity through music is evident in their expressions as they pose proudly with their creation.
The vintage aesthetic of this piece transports us back to an era filled with both hardship and unity, where songs like "Shine On Victory Moon" served as anthems of strength for those enduring the challenges of wartime. It's a reminder of the power that music has to inspire courage and perseverance in even the darkest moments.
As we admire this historical artifact from Bevan Productions' March of Women Collection, let us reflect on the significance of art in preserving memories and honoring those who fought bravely for freedom. May this image continue to shine brightly like a victory moon, illuminating our path towards a better future.
