Baby's new ball," the image depicts a baby gleefully holding onto a large ball, while surrounded by his governess or nurse and a woman who appears to be his mother. The baby is dressed in traditional baby clothes, complete with a cap on his head, adding to the whimsical nature of the scene.
The postcard is captioned "Compliments of the Season," suggesting that it may have been sent as a Christmas greeting card during that time period. The satirical drawing conveys a sense of joy and innocence, as well as humor through its depiction of the playful interaction between the baby and his new toy.
This print is not only an artistic representation but also serves as a nostalgic glimpse into past traditions and customs surrounding childhood and holiday celebrations.
