Item: Keep Calm and Carry On Blue Shopping Tote Bag
Seller:KeepCalmAndCarryOn

When life gets you down, “keep calm and carry on.”

keepcalmandcarryons blue shopping tote bag Carrying OnI love this bag!  It’s $40.00 and the seller (KeepCalmAndCarryOn) has tons of other merchandise with the same slogan.  They are inspired by the classic British World War II poster below:

keep calm and carry on print Carrying On

In 1939, the British Ministry of Information wanted these posters put up all over the country.  However, it turned out the poster made some walls in the country, but was largely unknown and dismissed by the maker.

A copy of the poster was found some years later, and became a bit of a collector item and catchy phrase. The crown represents King George VI, but other than that the poster is pretty simple.

Keep calm and carry on, all!
