EDITORS COMMENTS
This Ole Bill printed fabric doll, adorned with intricate wood and button details, serves as a charming and poignant representation of the iconic First World War character created by British satirical cartoonist Bruce Bairnsfather. The doll, which dates back to the era of the war, was given as a cherished souvenir following the performance of the review "Cheep!" at the esteemed Vaudeville Theatre in London. "Cheep!" was a popular revue that entertained audiences during the First World War, providing a much-needed respite from the harsh realities of the conflict. The show, which featured the talents of the renowned actress Miss Lee White, showcased a series of sketches, songs, and dances that celebrated the spirit of the British military and their enduring camaraderie in the face of adversity. Bairnsfather's Ole Bill character, with his distinctive monocle, pipe, and signature "What!" expression, became an emblem of the 1st Great War, encapsulating the humour, resilience, and determination of the British soldiers in the trenches. This exquisitely crafted doll, with its meticulous attention to detail, is a testament to the enduring appeal of Bairnsfather's work and the historical significance of the First World War. The doll, which is part of an English school collection, is a precious reminder of the rich military history and artistic contributions that emerged from the First World War. Its intricate wood and button detailing, combined with the vibrant printed fabric, make it a truly unique and captivating piece of historical art.
