EDITORS COMMENTS
A delightful illustration from the 1930s capturing the moment when Dunderpate and his three schoolfriends, Mary, Margaret, and Baker, gather at the school gate. The sun is just beginning to peek over the horizon, casting long shadows and painting the scene in warm hues. Yet, despite the early hour, Dunderpate, the perennially late student, is already running behind schedule. Despite his tardiness, Dunderpate's face is beaming with a sense of pride and amusement as he shares a joke with his friends. He has managed to remember his umbrella on this rainy morning, a small victory that he finds worthy of celebration. His companions, Mary, Margaret, and Baker, laugh in good-natured teasing, their silhouettes framed against the backdrop of the school building. The boys, dressed in their school uniforms, hold their books close, ready to begin another day of learning. The image captures the essence of childhood camaraderie and the simple joys of growing up in the 1930s. The rain may have dampened their spirits, but not the spirit of friendship and the shared experience of education that binds them together. This charming illustration, a treasure from the Mary Evans Prints Online archive, offers a glimpse into the past and the timeless bond of friendship that transcends the challenges of growing up. Dunderpate and his schoolfriends may have been late for school, but they were never late for a good laugh and a moment of shared joy.
