Air Force Museum of NZ
Rationing in the 1940's
Monday 4 May 2026 1.30pm - 2.30pm

This presentation highlights the effects of rationing on the New Zealand home front during World War Two. It covers subjects such as ration books, items that were rationed, substitutes to rationed items, and wartime ration packs used by military
personnel. A great showcase of how the
average civilian, and those who were
serving, coped with wartime shortages.
This presentation is supported by
photographs from the museum’s archive
and collection items.
