Bonzo Comes Home with the Milk!: A Charming 1920s Image of George Studdy's Beloved Canine Character This delightful image, titled 'Bonzo comes home with the milk!', captures the moment when Bonzo, the small, saucer-eyed dog created by British illustrator George Ernest Studdy, returns home after a day out in the wintery weather. Bonzo lies contentedly asleep on the doorstep, oblivious to the snow falling around him and the cold air that nips at his nose. In his mouth, he holds a party streamer, a playful reminder of the festivities he may have encountered on his adventures. George Studdy (1878-1948) first introduced Bonzo to the world in the Sketch magazine in 1922. The character's unique appearance, with his saucer-like eyes and indiscriminate breeding, quickly captured the hearts of the public. The Bonzo craze that ensued resulted in an array of merchandise, including postcards, annuals, toys, and other items. This particular image, taken in January 1923, showcases Bonzo's charming personality and the simple joys of life. The snow-covered doorstep, the milk can and churn, and the peaceful winter scene all add to the image's nostalgic charm. The photograph is a testament to Studdy's artistic talent and the enduring appeal of his beloved canine character. Credit: Estate of George Studdy/Gresham Marketing Ltd./ILN/Mary Evans
