EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time and experience the whimsical charm of the Victorian era with this enchanting collection of fifteen comic heads. Dating back to the late 1890s, these intricately detailed scraps showcase the playful side of Victorian society through the use of expressive, caricatured faces. Each scrap features a unique comic head, with both men and women represented. The women don elegant bonnets adorned with ribbons and flowers, their hairstyles ranging from sleek and simple to voluminous and extravagant. The men sport fashionable collars and monocles, their faces contorted into various expressions of humor and fun. One scrap showcases a man with a red nose and a mischievous grin, while another depicts a woman with a glum expression and a wing-like accessory attached to her head. Some of the heads are adorned with pince-nez glasses, while others have open mouths and extended tongues, adding to the overall sense of amusement. These scraps offer a glimpse into the lighter side of Victorian life, a time when humor and fun were expressed through intricate, hand-drawn illustrations. They serve as a reminder that even in the most formal of eras, people found joy and amusement in the simple things, and that laughter and smiles are timeless. These fifteen comic heads, with their expressive faces and intricate details, are a must-have for any collector of Victorian ephemera or anyone who appreciates the artistry and whimsy of the past.
