EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming print captures a moment in history when communication was delivered in a truly unique way. A postman on a penny farthing bike is seen delivering a parcel to a woman dressed in an elegant long coat with fur trim. The scene evokes the nostalgia of the 1930s, where traditional modes of transportation and fashion were still prevalent.
The postman's towering penny farthing bike adds an element of whimsy to the image, showcasing the ingenuity and creativity of past generations. Despite its impracticality compared to modern methods, it served as an iconic symbol of postal delivery during that era.
The woman receiving the parcel exudes sophistication and grace, her attire reflecting the style trends of the time. Her expression suggests anticipation and gratitude for this special delivery, highlighting the importance placed on correspondence back then.
Overall, this print from Mary Evans Picture Library offers a glimpse into a bygone era when handwritten letters and parcels were cherished forms of communication. It serves as a reminder of simpler times when personal connections were made through tangible items delivered by dedicated postmen like the one depicted here on his trusty penny farthing bike.
