A Good Spell Of Business
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a vibrant and satirical colour litho print that captures the essence of early 20th-century business culture. In this comical scene, a group of businessmen, both rich and poor, are depicted working diligently amidst a backdrop of dollar signs. The image playfully portrays the stark contrast between their financial situations. The businessmen are shown wearing patched jackets and raggedy clothes, symbolizing their struggle to make ends meet. With chalk in hand, one businessman writes jokes on a blackboard while another sits back with templed fingers, exuding an air of wealth and superiority. Their exaggerated features such as monocles and spats add to the absurdity of the scene. Amidst this satirical drawing lies a scathing satire on the world of finance. The artist cleverly highlights how even children can be drawn into this realm through caricature-like portrayals. A young child is seen sitting among these adults, perhaps representing innocence lost or emphasizing how money permeates all aspects of society. With its witty captions and humorous undertones, "A Good Spell Of Business" serves as both entertainment and social commentary. This postcard from the early 20th century offers us a glimpse into an era where finances were at the forefront of everyone's minds – whether they were wealthy or struggling to get by.
