Pushfulness at Plug Street
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a satirical cartoon created by renowned British war artist and cartoonist, Captain Bruce Bairnsfather, published in The Bystander magazine in 1916 during the First World War. The image depicts Colonel Ian Jelloid of the Blobshire Rifles, an energetic and businesslike military officer, standing at Plug Street, a notorious sector of the Western Front notorious for its stagnant and unyielding battle conditions. Colonel Jelloid, with a determined expression on his face, is seen holding a large advertising hoarding bearing the slogan "Forward with the Blobshires!" The colonel's unwavering commitment to advertising as an antidote to the stagnant warfare reflects the spirit of innovation and resilience that characterized the British war effort during this period. The cartoon's title, "Pushfulness at Plug Street," alludes to the colonel's pushy and forceful personality, as well as the military strategy of pushing forward against the enemy lines. The use of humor and satire in the cartoon serves to lighten the mood and provide a momentary reprieve from the grim realities of the war. Bairnsfather's cartoons, which often depicted the absurdities and hardships of trench warfare, were widely popular among soldiers and civilians alike. They provided a much-needed source of morale-boosting humor during a time of great hardship and uncertainty. This print, with its vivid colors and intricate detail, offers a fascinating glimpse into the spirit of the First World War era and the role of humor in helping people cope with the challenges of war. The image is a testament to the enduring power of art to capture the essence of history and provide insight into the human condition.
