EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "A Brisk Business with Rotten Eggs: A Politician's Unfavorable Reaction at the Hustings" Amidst the chaotic scene of a bustling political rally, a seasoned politician, identified as "Juggins," stands at a table, delivering a passionate speech to an engaged crowd. The atmosphere is tense, with the air thick with anticipation and excitement. However, the tranquility is suddenly disrupted as a barrage of rotten eggs rains down upon the unsuspecting politician. The eggs, labeled as "foreign," are thrown with such force that they shatter upon impact, leaving Juggins visibly shocked and alarmed. The postcard, part of the Market Reports series, captures the moment in vivid detail. The politician's horrified expression is etched on his face, his glasses askew, and his suit splattered with the remnants of the eggs. The table, once the stage for his speech, is now a mess of broken eggshells and spilled contents. The crowd's reaction is a mix of amusement and disdain, with some spectators pelting more eggs while others cover their mouths in shock. The caption of the postcard reads, "Eggs (foreign) : 'A brisk business was done.' " This clever play on words highlights the unexpected turn of events, with the sale of eggs reaching an all-time high due to the politician's unfortunate encounter. The image serves as a reminder of the unpredictability and intensity of political campaigns, where even the most seasoned politicians can be caught off guard. The postcard, from the Mary Evans Prints Online collection by Bradshaw, offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, providing a unique perspective on the world of politics and the human reaction to unexpected events.
