Personal Fave #4
Wait for Me, Daddy, 1940
Taken in New Westminster, this is probably the most iconic wartime photo to come out of Canada. It was featured in Life Magazine, Liberty, Time Magazine, Newsweek and innumerable other publications.
Many years later, Chuck Davis interviewed the boy in the picture and wrote about it here.
