The Cult of Queer Pets
EDITORS COMMENTS
- a charming and humorous 1914 cartoon capturing the unexpected trend of the era, where people took their unusual pets for a stroll in the streets, much to the shock and surprise of onlookers. In this lively scene, we see a lady gracefully navigating Bond Street, London, with a miniature pig on a lead, while a man struggles to control a penguin that seems more interested in waddling than walking. A woman with a frog on a leash, a blind man with a porcupine, and a couple with a bear and an anteater complete the scene. This comic illustration, filled with oddities and amusement, offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing the quirky and unexpected pet craze that swept through early 20th-century society. The image, with its historical significance and enduring humor, remains a delightful reminder of the unexpected twists and turns that life can take.
