EDITORS COMMENTS
Step right up and feast your eyes on this delightful early 20th century comic postcard capturing the joy and hilarity of a rollerskating date! The man, with a wimpish expression on his face, struggles to keep his balance as the woman, dressed in a beautiful blue frock with frilly petticoats and underskirt, kicks him playfully in the chin. The couple's rollerskates scatter in all directions, adding to the chaos of the scene. This invigorating and exhilarating sport was all the rage during the Edwardian era, and this lighthearted postcard perfectly encapsulates the fun and excitement of a rollerskating outing. The man, with his thin frame and weak appearance, seems to be in for a painful fall, while the woman, with her confident and mischievous grin, appears to be enjoying every moment of it. Rollerskating was not only a popular pastime but also considered a healthy form of exercise, making it an ideal activity for couples looking to spend a fun and active day together. So grab a pair of rollerskates and join this charming couple in their rollercoaster ride of love and laughter!
