EDITORS COMMENTS
In this delightful sequential cartoon by H.M. Bateman, titled "The Boots Who Forgot to Chalk the Boots," we find ourselves in a bustling hotel where a young man has been given the responsibility of shoe cleaning and polishing duties. With a mischievous twinkle in his eye, Bateman captures the hilarious consequences of the young man's carelessness the following morning. As the scene opens, we see the young man haphazardly mixing up pairs of shoes, some heels with boots, and polishing them with a haphazard hand. He seems more interested in chatting up the hotel guests than in doing his job properly. The scene shifts to the next morning, where guests are seen in a state of confusion and amusement as they try to claim their shoes. One guest is seen wearing a woman's high-heeled shoe on one foot and a man's boot on the other. Another is wearing a pair of mismatched boots, one brown and one black. Bateman's use of humor in this cartoon is both playful and clever. The young man's carelessness leads to a comical mix-up of shoes, resulting in a scene that is both amusing and cross-dressing in nature. The guests take it all in stride, adding to the lightheartedness of the scene. This cartoon, created in 1920, is a testament to Bateman's ability to capture the human condition with humor and wit. The scene is reminiscent of the chaos that can ensue when tasks are not taken seriously, and the unexpected consequences that can arise from carelessness. Bateman's attention to detail and his ability to create a narrative through a series of images make this cartoon a timeless piece of art that continues to delight and amuse audiences today.
