EDITORS COMMENTS
Amidst the chaos and turmoil of the First World War, two feline friends found solace in the simple pleasures of life. Circa 1918, this charming comic postcard captures the light-hearted moment as a black cat and a ginger cat sit peacefully together on a windowsill, enjoying the sun's warm rays and the tranquility of the post-war world. The humorous illustration, reminiscent of the works of renowned Canadian artist Donald McGill, adds a touch of fun and levity to an era marked by hardship and struggle. The 1910s, a time of great change and transition, saw the emergence of comic postcards as a popular form of entertainment and communication. These humorous cards, often featuring cats and other animals, provided a welcome distraction from the harsh realities of the war and its aftermath. This particular postcard, with its endearing depiction of two cats enjoying the peace, serves as a poignant reminder of the resilience and ability of animals to bring joy and comfort in even the most challenging of times. The black and white image, with its intricate details and expressive characters, invites the viewer to imagine the story behind the scene and to appreciate the beauty and humor of the moment. A true treasure from the past, this comic postcard is a delightful reminder of the power of friendship and the enduring appeal of cats.
