EDITORS COMMENTS
This fabulous cartoon by H.M. Bateman, titled "The Buses were not affected by the Strike," is a humorous commentary on the chaotic commute experienced by the British public during the bus strikes of 1919. The image depicts a crowded bus, with a multitude of people fighting and pushing to squeeze on board. The overcrowded bus is so packed that passengers are even hanging off the sides and clinging to the roof. The cartoonist masterfully captures the sense of frustration and desperation felt by commuters during this time, as they tried to make their way to work despite the transportation disruptions. The cartoon is a testament to the resilience and humor of the British people in the face of adversity. This historical cartoon is a fascinating glimpse into the past, providing insight into the challenges and struggles faced by commuters over a century ago. H.M. Bateman's witty and humorous style adds an extra layer of enjoyment to this timeless piece.
