Man in Pursuit of a Lost Football
EDITORS COMMENTS
- Inside Right (2 of 2), Early 20th Century This delightful comic postcard from the early 1900s, titled "Man in Pursuit of a Lost Football" - Inside Right (2 of 2), captures the lighthearted spirit of Edwardian England. The scene unfolds in a quintessential English garden, where a man in a suit and hat, with a determined expression, is searching for a lost football. The woman in the background, dressed in a frilly blue dress with an apron and pinafore, hangs laundry on a clothesline, seemingly oblivious to her husband's predicament. The man's search leads him to look under a fence, suggesting that the ball might have rolled into the neighbor's garden. His frustration is palpable as he leans over, peering under the fence, while the woman, perhaps amused by her husband's predicament, continues her chore. The man's search party, consisting of other men in suits, can be seen in the distance, adding to the comedic element of the scene. The use of colors and details in this postcard, such as the blue dress and frilly apron of the woman, the bloomers and knickers of the servant maid, and the green foliage of the garden, add to the overall charm and humor of the image. The postcard is a fun and humorous glimpse into the past, showcasing the everyday life and quirks of the Edwardian era.
