Little Miss Muffit and the Unlucky Putt
EDITORS COMMENTS
- A Charming 1930s Golfing Humor Illustration by Lesley Butler Step back in time to the roaring '30s and join us on a whimsical journey through the world of golfing humour as we explore this delightful illustration by Lesley Butler, titled "Little Miss Muffit and the Unlucky Putt." In the heart of a lush, green golf course, we find our protagonist, a determined yet anxious-looking female golfer, poised over her putt. Her expression reveals a mixture of concentration and trepidation, as if sensing the weight of the world resting on this single stroke. The scene is filled with a sense of anticipation, as a small crowd of golfers gathers around, some offering words of encouragement, others displaying clear signs of impatience. The cartoonish style of this 1930s illustration adds an extra layer of charm and levity to the scene. The exaggerated features of the golfers' faces and their diverse reactions create a delightful contrast to the serene, almost surreal, backdrop of the golf course. The use of bold lines and vibrant colours further emphasizes the playful nature of this humorous work. As we delve deeper into the image, we notice the number 13 subtly incorporated into the scene, adding an element of superstition and unlucky omens to our protagonist's predicament. The presence of a golf cart in the background, a common sight in modern golfing, serves as a gentle reminder of the evolution of the sport over the decades. "Little Miss Muffit and the Unlucky Putt" is a captivating snapshot of a bygone era, offering a delightful blend of golfing action, humour, and nostalgia. This charming illustration is the perfect addition to any golfing enthusiast's collection or a delightful conversation starter for those with an appreciation for the history of sporting art.
