EDITORS COMMENTS
Addled Ads: A Tale of Misplaced Pets and Playful Words - Circa 1905 In this delightfully humorous postcard, the words "Addled Ads" come to life in a playful twist on the concept of lost and found. The image features a wanted announcement for a light brown rough-haired Irish terrier, complete with a circular "Wanted" section and a reward offer. But what sets this advertisement apart from the rest are the words "Addled Ads" written across the top. The term "addled" can mean both confused or disheveled, as well as mentally impaired or foolish. In this context, it adds a touch of whimsy and humor to the otherwise straightforward lost pet announcement. The wordplay continues with the use of "ads," which can refer to both advertisements and, in this case, the lost dog itself. The Irish terrier in question is described as having a light brown rough coat and a collar with the name "Bobby" on a plate. The collar's metal nameplate, reminiscent of a policeman's name tag, adds to the miniature scene's historical feel. The juxtaposition of the serious "Wanted" section and the lighthearted "Addled Ads" title creates a fun and amusing contrast. The use of words in this way adds depth and character to an otherwise ordinary postcard, making it a charming piece of history that is sure to bring a smile to anyone's face.
