EDITORS COMMENTS
presents this charming and humorous cartoon titled "Those Oxford Finals," published in The Illustrated London News in September 1925. The illustration captures the essence of the Oxford University exams, with students diligently studying for their finals while their fashionable Oxford bags, a symbol of academic achievement, lie forgotten in the corner. As time passes and trends evolve, it's not uncommon for once-treasured possessions to fall out of fashion. In this lighthearted cartoon, we see creative new uses for those old Oxford bags. One student transforms his bag into a makeshift heath for his plant, while another uses it as a substitute for trousers, wearing it as a pair of pants. The third student even turns his bag into a makeshift sling for his injured arm. This delightful cartoon not only showcases the ingenuity of students but also highlights the timeless nature of classic clothing items. The Oxford bags, though no longer in vogue, continue to serve a purpose, reminding us that there's always a new way to utilise old clothing. This historical cartoon, created in 1925, offers a glimpse into the past while also providing a touch of humor and relatability. It's a charming reminder that even the most seemingly outdated items can find new life with a bit of creativity and resourcefulness. Join us in appreciating the wit and charm of this vintage cartoon and the valuable lesson it imparts about making the most of what we have.
