Tickle! Tickle!: A Playful Moment between Tommy and Billy the Elephant in a Classic John Hassall Cartoon This delightful and whimsical cartoon by renowned British illustrator John Hassall, titled "Tickle! Tickle!", captures the mischievous spirit of a sailor named Tommy as he attempts to tickle an unsuspecting elephant named Billy. Dating back to the 20th century, this charming image is a testament to the timeless appeal of playful pranks and the unexpected bond between people and animals. In the illustration, Tommy, dressed in a sailor suit, sits confidently on the elephant's broad back, his feet resting casually on the animal's ears. With a peacock feather in hand, he leans in close to Billy's side, ready to elicit a reaction. The elephant, seemingly oblivious to the impending tickle, is shown seated calmly, his massive form dwarfing the small figure of his rider. The cartoon's humor lies in the contrast between the size and strength of the elephant and the seemingly insignificant act of tickling. The playful expression on Tommy's face and the gentle curve of his smile as he says, "See me make im jump and throw Billy orf," adds to the lightheartedness of the scene. This image not only showcases Hassall's exceptional artistic talent but also highlights the historical significance of the relationship between people and animals. The cartoon serves as a reminder that even the most unlikely friendships can be forged through moments of shared mischief and playful banter.
