Golf in Other Lands - A Daring Round in Egypt
EDITORS COMMENTS
(circa 1910) This comic postcard captures the whimsical and adventurous spirit of golfing in exotic locales during the early 1910s. The image depicts a group of dapper gentlemen in golfing attire, complete with fez hats, taking a break from their game on the banks of the Nile. The serene scene is disrupted by the presence of a mischievous crocodile and an alligator lurking in the water, adding a touch of danger and excitement to the otherwise tranquil setting. The humor in this postcard lies in the contrast between the peaceful pastime of golf and the potential peril of encountering these reptiles in their natural habitat. The golfer in the foreground, with a worried expression on his face, seems to have come to a sudden realization of the danger and is making a hasty retreat. His companions, however, appear unfazed and continue their game, perhaps taking a more cavalier approach to the risks involved. The pyramid in the background serves as a reminder of the rich history and cultural significance of Egypt, highlighting the allure of traveling to far-off lands for adventure and discovery. This postcard offers a glimpse into the colonial mindset of the early 20th century, where the Middle East was often romanticized and exoticized in European popular culture. The use of stereotypical imagery, such as the fez hats and the portrayal of Egyptians as reptiles, reflects the biases and assumptions of the time. Despite its problematic representations, this postcard remains an intriguing artifact of a bygone era, offering insights into the fascination with golf and travel during the colonial period.
