I wonder where wartime postcards were printed? I mean, with all the devistation going on, and no doubt rationing, you'd think postcards wouldn't be a top priority. Perhaps they were seen as a way to unite the country? I'm sure some were also used as propaganda, too, though I personally have not seen any like that myself.
