EDITORS COMMENTS
This illustration, titled "The Hokey Pokey Man" by Maginel Wright Barney, transports us back to the early 1900s and the vibrant streets of an American city. Maginel Wright Barney (1881-1966), an accomplished artist and illustrator, masterfully captured the essence of an ice cream vendor in this enchanting work, dated 1923. The Hokey Pokey Man is depicted with a mischievous grin, skillfully maneuvering his horse-drawn ice cream cart, adorned with colorful signs and intricate designs. The cart is piled high with various flavors of ice cream, including the popular Hokey Pokey, a sweet treat made with toffee and marshmallow pieces. The vendor's attire, complete with a striped apron and a wide-brimmed hat, exudes the charm and character of the era. The Hokey Pokey Man's eyes are fixed on the children gathered around his cart, their curious faces filled with excitement and anticipation as they eagerly wait for their turn to be served. The scene is alive with energy and joy, as the vendor expertly scoops out the ice cream, his deft movements a testament to his skill and dedication. This illustration is a beautiful snapshot of a simpler time, when life moved at a slower pace and the simple pleasure of an ice cream cone could bring a smile to the faces of young and old alike. Maginel Wright Barney's artistry not only captures the spirit of the Hokey Pokey Man but also the essence of a bygone era, making this a truly cherished piece of American history.
