EDITORS COMMENTS
In this delightful and humorous 1929 cartoon by Joyce Dennys, a mother of two gets a little carried away while trying to maintain her car. With one baby in tow and another underfoot, she becomes momentarily absent-minded and attempts to add milk to the engine instead of oil. The baby, sensing the opportunity for a taste of something new, grabs a bottle and takes a swig, much to the surprise and amusement of the mother. This charming illustration captures the multitasking challenges and unexpected moments that come with motherhood and motoring in the early 20th century. Joyce Dennys was a British cartoonist and illustrator, known for her humorous and observant depictions of everyday life. This image is a lighthearted reminder of the joys and quirks of raising young children and keeping up with the demands of modern technology.
