EDITORS COMMENTS
A Safe Goal, 1910 This delightful and whimsical image, titled "A Safe Goal," dates back to 1910 and is the creation of the talented artist Crackerjack. The scene depicts a large, jovial girl standing guard in front of a hockey goal, her expression a blend of determination and amusement. The goalposts are noticeably absent, replaced instead by a pair of oversized wooden shoes, adding an extra layer of humor to the composition. The girl wears a bulky, protective hockey uniform, complete with pads covering her legs and torso, and a helmet perched atop her head. In her hands, she holds a hockey stick, its blade positioned in front of her, ready to deflect any incoming pucks. Her size and the absence of a net suggest that she is an impenetrable fortress, a human barrier meant to keep the puck out at all costs. The artist's use of exaggerated proportions and the playful setting create a lighthearted and charming depiction of a hockey game. The large, expressive eyes of the girl and the cheerful smile on her face further emphasize the sense of fun and enjoyment. This image is a testament to the enduring appeal of hockey and the joy that can be found in the game, even in its earliest days. Crackerjack's "A Safe Goal" is a wonderful reminder of the lighter side of hockey and the sense of camaraderie and humor that can be found on the ice. This unique and captivating print is a must-have for any hockey enthusiast or collector of early 20th-century art.
