EDITORS COMMENTS
In this illustration from the roaring twenties, a flapper girl finds herself in a spot of trouble as two stern-faced policemen approach her vehicle for a suspected speeding violation. Dressed in the height of fashion, the young woman's bobbed hair and fringe dress are a stark contrast to the serious business at hand. The year is estimated to be between 1928 and 1929, a time when the automobile had become a symbol of freedom and independence for young people. The scene unfolds with the policemen's stern gazes and authoritative postures, while the flapper girl looks up at them with a hint of defiance and perhaps a touch of innocence. The caption adds a witty touch to the image, as the policemen seem to have heard every excuse in the book. "You needn't say anymore, Miss. We know all the excuses. Yours is the eleventh on the list!" The illustration is a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing the intersection of fashion, transportation, and the law during an era of rapid social change. This vintage sketch, with its intricate details and lively energy, is a testament to the skillful artistry of the time. The use of bold lines, deep shadows, and vibrant colors adds to the overall charm and allure of the image. Whether you're a history buff, a fan of vintage illustrations, or simply someone who appreciates a good story, this print is sure to capture your imagination and transport you back in time.
