EDITORS COMMENTS
The Tables Turned: A Jazz-tastic Christmas Twist by William Heath Robinson, 1921 As the festive season approaches, the air is filled with the sounds of carols and traditional holiday tunes, or so one would think. In this delightfully humorous and amusing cartoon by William Heath Robinson, entitled "The Tables Turned," the scene takes a modern and unexpected turn. Instead of the usual tranquil and picturesque Waits scene, where musicians roam the streets, playing carols to spread holiday cheer, this image showcases a lively and boisterous jazz band of residents, putting the musicians out of action. The musicians, bundled up against the winter chill, are huddled together, their instruments gathering dust, as they watch in disbelief from the sidelines. The residents of this particular street have taken the holiday spirit into their own hands, and their windows have become the stage for their impromptu jazz performances. The band members, dressed in their finest holiday attire, are fully engaged in their music, oblivious to the disappointed looks from the Waits. The joy and excitement on their faces are palpable, as they revel in the unexpected twist of events. Heath Robinson's "The Tables Turned" is a charming reminder that traditions can evolve and adapt, and that sometimes, the most memorable holiday moments come from the most unexpected sources. This cartoon is a testament to the enduring spirit of Christmas and the power of music to bring people together, even in the most unexpected ways.
