Barrow Cigarette Copes Ellam Models Ice Cream
EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming vintage image captures the essence of a simpler time, as a young boy skillfully navigates an ice cream barrow at a country fair. The scene is depicted in intricate detail by British artist William Henry Ellam for Copes Toy Models' cigarette card series, circa 1930. The ice cream barrow, adorned with colorful stripes and a cheerful sign, is a quintessential symbol of summer fun and nostalgia. The boy, dressed in a short-sleeved shirt and trousers, wears an expression of concentration as he maneuvers the heavy load, while a curious crowd looks on, eagerly anticipating their sweet treats. The country fair setting adds to the sense of community and joy, with tents, banners, and other attractions visible in the background. This historical image not only transports us back in time, but also invites us to appreciate the simple pleasures of life, such as the delight of enjoying a scoop of ice cream on a sunny day.
