Dickens Driving Engaged Sticking 1928 December Smith
EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: A Humorous December Surprise: The Smith Girl's Engagement Announcement This delightful illustration, dated back to December 5, 1928, captures a lighthearted moment on the road as two motorists share an amusing exchange. The scene is set in an era of graceful automobiles and charming roadside manners. The illustration, titled "Why the dickens does that girl in front keep sticking out her left hand? She: Oh! That's the Smith girl- she's just got engaged!", is a visual representation of the excitement and joy that comes with sharing good news. The driver in the foreground, with a puzzled expression, cannot fathom why the girl in the car ahead keeps extending her left hand out the window. His companion, sitting beside him, is quick to enlighten him with a knowing smile. The girl in question, the "Smith girl," is celebrating her recent engagement and sharing the news with the world. The historical context of this illustration is further emphasized by the vintage automobiles, the classic attire, and the wintery December setting. The intricate details of the cars, from their rounded fenders to their spoked wheels, are a testament to the elegance and craftsmanship of the time. The illustration, created by the talented hand of an unknown artist, is a charming snapshot of history, capturing the essence of a simpler time. This humorous and heartwarming illustration is a wonderful addition to any collection, be it for personal enjoyment or to enhance the decor of a vintage-themed room.
