EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Leading from Dummy: A Prideful Hostess Rehearsing for the Season with a Dummy, 1924" 2.. In the charming and witty cartoon "Leading from Dummy," published in the Illustrated London News on October 22, 1924, we find a popular and proud hostess diligently preparing for her first home gathering of the season. With an air of confidence and determination, she conducts a dress rehearsal, meticulously practicing her leadership skills with the help of an unlikely assistant - a dummy. 3. The scene unfolds in a cozy, elegant drawing room, adorned with autumnal hues and the subtle charm of the early 20th century. The hostess, dressed in her finest attire, stands tall and poised, her gaze fixed on the dummy as she delicately guides its arm, mimicking the graceful gestures she intends to employ during the upcoming social event. 4. The cartoon, created by the talented Mary Evan, exudes an undeniable sense of humor and nostalgia, capturing the essence of the era's social customs and the pride women took in their roles as gracious hosts. This classic piece of art serves as a delightful reminder of a bygone era, when the simple act of leading a dress rehearsal could be an occasion for both serious preparation and lighthearted amusement. 5.
