Bonzo and Chee-Kee keep smiling by George Studdy
Bonzo and Chee-Kee keep smiling -- the Pekingese watches Bonzo having his bath, after which he chases her, knocks into the coal scuttle and makes himself dirty all over again. George Ernest Studdy (1878-1948), was the creator of Bonzo, a small dog with saucer-like eyes and indiscriminate breeding who first appeared in the Sketch in 1922. The Bonzo craze swept the world resulting in postcards, annuals, toys and other merchandise. Credit should read: Estate of George Studdy/Gresham Marketing Ltd./ILN/Mary Evans Date: 7 March 1923

Bonzo and Chee-Kee - A Tale of Unyielding Smiles and Playful Chaos
EDITORS COMMENTS
This delightful photograph captures the playful antics between Bonzo, the beloved small dog with saucer-like eyes and indiscriminate breeding, and his Pekingese companion, Chee-Kee. The scene unfolds in the comfort of a quintessential English home, with Bonzo in the midst of having his bath. The mischievous canine, seemingly oblivious to the soapy water and potential discomfort, casts a contented smile towards Chee-Kee, who watches him intently from the sidelines. However, the tranquility of the moment is short-lived as Bonzo, in a burst of energy, chases the unsuspecting Chee-Kee. In the ensuing chaos, Bonzo knocks into a coal scuttle, sending a cloud of soot and coal flying, covering himself and his companion in mess. Despite the unexpected turn of events, both dogs continue to smile, their expressions a testament to their unwavering friendship and playful spirits. This charming image is the creation of renowned British artist George Ernest Studdy, who first introduced Bonzo to the world in the Sketch magazine in 1922. The Bonzo craze that ensued resulted in an avalanche of merchandise, including postcards, annuals, toys, and other collectibles. The photograph, dated 7 March 1923, offers a glimpse into the 1920s, a time of class differences, pedigree vs. mongrel, and the simple joy of pet ownership. The contrasting expressions of the two dogs, the chaos in the scene, and the enduring smiles on their faces, make for a timeless and captivating moment in history.
