EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing late Victorian New Year card, dating back to the 1890s, features two soldiers in full uniform, standing on a stirrup-shaped platform. The soldiers are dressed in traditional British Army attire, with one donning a bearskin hat and the other carrying a rifle with a fixed bayonet. The sentry on duty maintains a rigid posture, keeping a watchful eye over the scene, while his companion seems to be relaxing, perhaps taking a brief respite from their duties. The card's design is both festive and militaristic, with the red, white, and black color palette reflecting the spirit of the New Year. The soldiers' uniforms, with their gleaming buttons and meticulously pressed creases, showcase the attention to detail and craftsmanship of the era. The use of a stirrup-shaped base adds a unique touch to the card, making it a standout piece in any collection. This card offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the world of late Victorian military life and the traditions surrounding the New Year. It serves as a reminder of the importance of duty, discipline, and camaraderie, values that continue to resonate with us today.
