EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the whimsical world of the late Victorian era with this charming postcard depicting a delightful scene of cats enjoying a picnic in a sunlit German field. Dressed in playful anthropomorphism, these cats have donned humanized attire, with one white cat wearing a striped shirt and straw hat, while another black and tabby cat sports a red bow and a quirky smile. The cats have gathered around a wicker picnic basket, filled with an array of delectable treats and steaming hot beverages. A teapot, heated by a nearby fire fueled by a bellows, puffs out plumes of smoke, adding to the idyllic atmosphere. The cats appear to be in high spirits, engaging in lighthearted banter and playful antics as they partake in their summertime feast. The postcard's intricate wickerwork design and vivid colors transport us back to a time when life moved at a slower pace, and the simple joys of a picnic in the countryside were cherished by all. This image, a testament to the enduring appeal of cats and their comic antics, is a delightful addition to any vintage postcard collection.
