EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative 1937 illustration from the archives, two errand boys on bicycles, laden with parcels and groceries, find themselves in a precarious situation as they swerve to avoid a dog darting out into the road. The silhouetted scene, set against the backdrop of a quiet, tree-lined street, transports us back to the 1930s, a time when bicycles were a common mode of transport for delivering goods and running errands. The older boy, wearing a cap and holding onto a large basket, expertly maneuvers his bicycle to the left, narrowly missing the dog. However, his quick maneuver causes him to lose balance, and both he and his younger companion, who clings onto the handlebars of the other boy's bike, come crashing down to the ground. The spilled contents of their baskets scatter across the road, including a book, a loaf of bread, and various other household items. Mrs. Margaret Baker, the talented illustrator, masterfully captures the moment of surprise and disbelief on the faces of the boys as they come to a sudden stop. The intricate details of their clothing, the textures of the road and the fallen leaves, and the expressive body language of the dog all contribute to the depth and richness of this image. This illustration, with its timeless appeal and charming design, offers a glimpse into the past, reminding us of simpler times and the unexpected twists and turns that life can bring.
