The Typewriter Girl - A Satirical Snapshot of Working Women in 20th Century America
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This vibrant and humorous colour lithograph, titled "The Typewriter Girl" captures the essence of a bygone era when typewriters were an essential tool for office work. Created by an anonymous American artist from the 20th century, this postcard-turned-artwork offers a delightful glimpse into the world of secretaries and typists. In this comical scene, we see a young woman diligently typing away at her desk, surrounded by stacks of papers and books. With a mischievous smile on her face, she appears to be typing something other than official documents – perhaps witty poems or funny jokes. The satirical nature of this drawing is evident through its exaggerated caricature style and scathing satire aimed at American society. This artwork not only provides us with a visual representation of women's roles in the workforce during that time but also serves as a commentary on societal norms and expectations. It reminds us that even in seemingly mundane tasks like typing, there is room for creativity and humor. "The Typewriter Girl" postcard-turned-artwork is now part of a private collection, showcasing its enduring appeal as both an artistic expression and historical artifact. Its vivid colours and playful depiction continue to captivate viewers today, offering us insight into the lives of working women in early 20th century America while bringing joy through its clever wit.
