EDITORS COMMENTS
This humorous and satirical colour litho print captures a comical moment in the early 20th century, as a man sits nervously at the barbershop with his hair standing on end. The caption "Stop reading that ghost story, till I've brushed yer 'air down" adds to the playful nature of the scene. The man's expression conveys fear and apprehension, suggesting that he may have been spooked by the spooky tale he was reading.
The postcard-style artwork is filled with detail, from the intricate hairstyles of both men to the barber's tools and surroundings. The use of vibrant colours adds to the liveliness of the image, making it an engaging piece for viewers to enjoy.
Overall, this print is a charming reminder of a bygone era when humour and satire were popular forms of entertainment. It serves as a light-hearted commentary on human emotions such as fear and anxiety, while also showcasing the creativity and wit of artists from that time period.
Whether displayed in a private collection or shared among friends as a postcard, this delightful artwork is sure to bring smiles and laughter to all who see it.
