EDITORS COMMENTS
Step right up to this enchanting image from the late Victorian era, featuring a cheerful clown with his head poking through a torn and broken paper hoop on a charming greetings card. Dressed in his colorful costume, complete with a red and white striped ruff, a pointed hat adorned with pom-poms, and a painted face filled with joy and mischief, this clown exudes the spirit of entertainment that captivated audiences during the golden age of the circus. The card, likely from the 1890s, is adorned with festive colors of red, white, green, and yellow, making it a perfect addition to any Christmas or Xmas celebration. The paper hoop, with its torn edges and hole just large enough for the clown's head to fit through, adds a whimsical touch to this delightful card. This vintage print, from The David Pearson Collection/Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a glimpse into the past and the rich history of circus entertainment. It is a charming reminder of the joy and wonder that these performers brought to audiences, and a testament to the enduring appeal of the clown character. Whether used as a greeting for a special occasion or as a decorative piece, this card is sure to bring a smile to anyone who sees it.
