Blitz Party
We love the opportunity for dressing up for a 1940′s party. Whether its playing old movies and big time band tunes, practicing our WW2 Jive steps or drinking extra strong tea whilst scoffing our ration-book inspired cakes, a 1940′s, 50′s or Blitz Party theme is great for sharing old memories and creating new ones.
We’ve just uncovered an old movie projector, which Steve is carefully restoring so we can begin showing authentic footage – but in the meantime we’ve collected a range of dvd’s from the late 1930′s through to the 50′s and have a rather handy modern projector and screen for more impromptu old-movie-matinees!
Our Blitz Party props collection is growing steadily to include:
- Our fabulous mis-matched china,
- Faded red, white and blue bunting
- Authentic union-jack flags from the 40′s
- Our old fashioned radio (circa 1950′s – just in time for the end of rationing) plus other communications equipment which we haven’t fathomed out yet but looks fab!
- Old films including Vera Lynn and Gracie Fields
- Old fashioned typewriter
- WW2 Recipes
We also have a projector screen and a laptop compatible projector for showing films at home.
