EDITORS COMMENTS
Step right up and feast your eyes on this vivid and whimsical comic postcard from the early 1900s, titled "Perils of the Demon Drink - Hallucinations." This intriguing image serves as a stark warning against the dangers of alcohol consumption. The illustration depicts a man, once proud and upright, now transformed into a grotesque figure, his body contorted and his face twisted in terror as he is surrounded by an array of bizarre and hallucinatory creatures. The "demon drink" has taken hold, causing him to see things that are not there. In one corner, a spotted elephant with a devilish grin and fiery eyes looks on, seemingly amused by the man's plight. A red devil, with horns and a pitchfork, taunts him from another corner, while a dragon and a line of mischievous demons frolic in the background. A lizard with a top hat and monocle sneers at the scene, adding to the surreal and colorful chaos. The man's hallucinations are a testament to the power of the "demon drink," which has the ability to distort reality and turn the world upside down. The once-normal surroundings have been replaced by a fantastical and terrifying landscape, a reminder of the perils of intoxication. This comic postcard, created circa 1903, is a captivating and intriguing glimpse into the past, offering a vivid and imaginative portrayal of the dangers of alcoholism. Its bold colors, unusual characters, and striking composition make it a truly unique and fascinating piece of historical art.
