EDITORS COMMENTS
Amidst the chaos and intensity of World War I, the relentless production in munitions factories became the new norm for women. Long hours spent handling explosives and machinery left their hands red, rough, and weathered. Yet, even in the midst of such demanding work, the need for self-care and a sense of normalcy persisted. Enter Royal Vinolia Cream, the quick and restorative solution for weary hands. This advertisement from 1917, featuring a determined munition worker, assures us that no matter how dirty or rough the work may be, Royal Vinolia Cream is up to the task. Its protective and soothing properties make red, rough hands soft and white, ensuring they remain that way. The image of the munitionette, her face focused and resolute, serves as a testament to the enduring spirit of women during this period. The munitions industry played a crucial role in the war effort, with women making up a significant portion of the workforce. The production line was a constant hive of activity, with women working tirelessly to manufacture shells and other essential military components. Amidst the grime and sweat, the simple pleasure of applying Royal Vinolia Cream offered a moment of respite and self-care. This advertisement, with its evocative imagery and powerful message, serves as a poignant reminder of the unique role women played during World War I and the importance of self-care, even in the most challenging of circumstances.
