A Diller a Dollar - A Twelve O'clock Scholar
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a beloved nursery rhyme that has captivated generations with its whimsical imagery and playful rhythm. In this enchanting illustration from The Florence Mary Anderson Collection, we find a young girl in a vibrant red dress, her satchel slung over one shoulder, surrounded by the magic of autumn. The crisp autumn leaves, tinged with hues of orange and red, flutter gently in the wind, creating a picturesque scene of the season. The girl, seemingly lost in thought, looks up at the clock as if expecting the arrival of a special guest. The clock face, adorned with fairies and twinkling stars, shows the time as twelve o'clock. The rhyme goes, "A Diller a Dollar, a Twelve O'clock Scholar, what makes you come so soon? You used to come at ten o'clock, and now you come at noon." The identity of the "scholar" remains a mystery, but the anticipation and excitement in the girl's expression are palpable. The illustration, created in 1917, is a beautiful testament to the timeless charm of nursery rhymes and the enchantment of autumn. The delicate details of the fairies, the falling leaves, and the wind-swept trees add to the magical atmosphere, transporting us to a world where the ordinary becomes extraordinary. This image, from the extensive collection of The Florence Mary Anderson Collection, is a must-have for anyone who cherishes the magic of nursery rhymes and the beauty of autumn.
