Title: Our Demon Bowler - A Roaring 20th Century Comic Postcard Charm! Step right up and feast your eyes on this delightfully humorous comic postcard from the 20th century, titled 'Our Demon Bowler'! This British gem, hailing from the golden age of postcards, is a must-have for any collection that appreciates a good chuckle. The scene presents an extraordinary cricket match, where the demon bowler, with his fiery red eyes, terrifying grin, and menacing stance, is about to hurl a ball towards three unsuspecting cricketers. The hapless cricketers, with their wide-eyed expressions, seem to be in a state of sheer panic, as they scramble to get out of the way. The caption below reads, "Speed - The Demon Bowler's Game!" This comic postcard is a brilliant example of the whimsical and humorous illustrations that were popular during the 20th century. The intricate details, vibrant colors, and the exaggerated expressions on the characters' faces add to the overall fun and lightheartedness of the image. The demon bowler is a nod to the supernatural elements that often appeared in comic postcards of the era. The image is reminiscent of the work of renowned American comic artist, Donald McGill, who was famous for his saucy and humorous postcards. This postcard is a perfect addition to any collection of vintage postcards, comic art, or cricket memorabilia. It is a fun and unique way to add a touch of humor and nostalgia to your home or office. So, why not add this demonic bowler to your collection and bring a smile to your face every time you look at it?
