The week of May 8, 1945, sparked unforgettable worldwide celebrations for Victory in Europe (VE Day). In London, King George VI, the Royal Family, and Winston Churchill saluted cheering thousands from the balcony of Buckingham Palace. Across the Atlantic, New York's Times Square witnessed the largest daytime gathering in its history. Across Canada, cities had been eagerly preparing for days to welcome the peace. Sixty years later, you can recapture the profound spirit of that historic era with this extraordinary commemorative set.
