EDITORS COMMENTS
In this delightful print from November 1951, we are transported back to the Christmas season of the 1950s. Silly yet effective toys were all the rage, and one such toy that brought endless joy was the girl guide finger puppet. Margaret France, a woman hailing from Kingsbury, Middlesex, is captured here in a moment of pure amusement as she dances two of these cardboard puppets on her fingertips. The simplicity of these puppets is what makes them so charming. With bodies made out of sturdy cardboard and plastic Wellington boots serving as their tiny finger tips, they may seem unassuming at first glance. However, once in action, they come alive with boundless fun and laughter. Margaret's infectious smile tells us just how much enjoyment these little dolls bring. As she skillfully manipulates them on her fingers, it's evident that these puppets have become her partners in playtime mischief. This heartwarming image reminds us that sometimes it's the simplest things that can bring us immense happiness during the holiday season. The girl guide finger puppet represents an era when imagination reigned supreme and children found joy in even the most humble toys. Let this photograph transport you back to a time when laughter filled living rooms and cardboard puppets danced merrily on fingertips – a testament to the power of simple pleasures during Christmastime.
