Journey back in time to the 1940s mid-month, courtesy of this special two-day event at the Black Country Living Museum.
As well as finding out about the outbreak of the Second World War and the era's Dig For Victory and Make Do And Mend campaigns, visitors can also check out reenactors in authentic period costumes, admire an impressive display of vintage vehicles, and find out all about ration books, identity cards, gas masks and air-raid precautions.
The venue will also be holding a special event on the Saturday evening which will see the streets and houses transformed into a homefront community, complete with live music and 194os-style entertainment.
