"Hoy no hay galletas para perro": Testimonio gráfico del racionamiento en tiempos de Guerra.
Un tendero, con su característica bata blanca, coloca el cartel de "sin galletas" frente a su establecimiento. Una niña, con ropa de invierno típica de la época y sosteniendo una canasta de compras, mira el cartel con desilusión. Su compañero, un terrier, parece mirar con la misma paciencia y esperanza.
