EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and humorous print captures the essence of a bygone era in football. The image showcases a full back, portrayed as an overweight dog, sitting on a spectator's lap. The female spectator is depicted as refined and elegant, holding a walking stick or cane. In the background, we see other players engaged in the match on the pitch. The cartoon-like style adds to the satirical nature of this artwork, poking fun at both players and spectators alike. The exaggerated portrayal of the full back emphasizes his size and weight, making for a comical scene. This print offers us a glimpse into early 20th-century football culture with its playful commentary on sportsmanship and societal norms. It reminds us that even in competitive sports like soccer, there is room for levity and laughter. Displayed at the National Football Museum in Manchester, UK, this postcard serves as a testament to English humor and creativity within sporting art. Its vivid colors and detailed lithography make it an eye-catching piece that will surely bring joy to any football enthusiast or lover of fine art.
