EDITORS COMMENTS
Title: "A Fun Bet" (circa 20th century) This delightful comic postcard, titled "A Fun Bet," showcases a young girl's innocent foray into the world of gambling and horseracing. The scene depicts a group of women, including a middle-aged woman with a knowing smile, gathered around a table covered in a red-checked tablecloth. Each woman holds a betting slip in hand, their eyes fixed on a race being played out on a small wooden horse track. In the center of the group, a young girl, dressed in a blue dress and white apron, leans in intently, her expression a mixture of excitement and concentration. She clutches a betting slip in one hand and points to a dog with her other, her eyes sparkling with anticipation. The dogs in the race are depicted as adorable, cartoonish creatures, adding to the lighthearted and humorous tone of the image. The postcard, which hails from the 20th century, is reminiscent of the naive and humorous style of the British artist Donald McGill. The simplicity of the illustrations and the whimsical nature of the subject matter make this postcard a fun and collectible piece, perfect for adding a touch of humor to any home or office. The use of animals in the postcard adds to its charm, as the horses and dogs are depicted with expressive faces and exaggerated features, making it clear that this is all in good fun. The image of the young girl, with her unbridled enthusiasm for the race, is a reminder of the innocent joy that can be found in even the most unexpected places.
