EDITORS COMMENTS
Boys with Bats and Stumps: Chasing Away the Cockerel and His Family (1937) - A delightful illustration from the 1930s capturing the playful energy of two boys on their way to play cricket. With their bats and stumps in hand, they make their way across a picturesque countryside scene, leaving behind a startled cockerel and his brood. The boys, dressed in shorts and caps, are silhouetted against the setting sun, adding an ethereal quality to the image. The cockerel, with his proud crest raised, stands protectively over his chicks, while his wife clucks anxiously by their side. The boys, oblivious to the commotion they've caused, continue on their merry way, their laughter echoing through the tranquil countryside. This charming illustration, reminiscent of a classic children's book, captures the innocence and joy of childhood in the thirties. The intricate details of the illustration, from the crusts of bread peeking out of the boys' pockets to the delicate feathers of the chickens, make it a true treasure for any vintage art or cricket enthusiast's collection.
