réf. 70027Rare ephemere publication about remembrance day 11 november 1932 in Flanders field. World War I remembrance British military history Remenbrance Day-Ephemera.Original publication with a grease stain in the bottom 19 x 12 cm. NL Zeldzame propagandafolder van de Royal British Legion ter ondersteuning van de jaarlijkse Remembrance Day-inzameling. De brochure bevat een oproep van veldmaarschalk Douglas Haig om de Flanders Poppy te dragen als eerbetoon aan de gevallenen van de Eerste Wereldoorlog en als steun voor oorlogsveteranen en hun nabestaanden. De uitgave werd gedrukt door de British Legion Press in Aylesford Kent en was bedoeld voor brede verspreiding tijdens de jaarlijkse Poppy Appeal.Na de Eerste Wereldoorlog groeide de klaproos uit tot hét internationale herdenkingssymbool geïnspireerd door het beroemde gedicht In Flanders Fields van John McCrae uit 1915. In Groot-Brittannië werd de jaarlijkse Poppy Appeal vanaf 1921 georganiseerd door de Royal British Legion. Douglas Haig was een van de belangrijkste initiatiefnemers en gebruikte zijn aanzien als voormalig opperbevelhebber van de Britse strijdkrachten om fondsen te werven voor invalide oud-strijders weduwen en wezen. Ook na zijn overlijden in 1928 werden zijn toespraken en oproepen nog jarenlang herdrukt als onderdeel van de campagne.De folder is een karakteristiek stuk interbellum-ephemera en documenteert hoe de herinnering aan de Eerste Wereldoorlog in de jaren dertig levend werd gehouden terwijl tegelijkertijd sociale zorg voor veteranen werd gefinancierd. Dergelijke uitgaven waren bedoeld voor tijdelijk gebruik en zijn daardoor aanzienlijk zeldzamer dan reguliere boeken of brochures. unknown
