They were worrying times. It was 1941, the Second World War was in full flood and Franklin D. Roosevelt was giving his Third Inaugural Address. There were concerns, given the rise of fascism, that democracy as a form of government was on the wane. The extract from his speech on this tea towel is: “Democracy is not dying. We know it because democracy alone, of all forms of government, enlists the full force of men’s enlightened will... It is the most humane, the most advanced, and in the end the most unconquerable of all forms of human society.”
