A Regulation Cat-Skin at Seven-and-Sixpence
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a delightful and whimsical print that captures the essence of childhood mischief and imagination. Created by Percy Tarrant, this vibrant color lithograph takes us back to the days of old-fashioned retail shops and schoolboy adventures. The image depicts a group of boys eagerly gathered around a shop window, their eyes wide with anticipation. In the display, we see an assortment of hats, but what truly catches their attention is the peculiar item at the center - a regulation cat-skin priced at seven-and-sixpence. This charming illustration was originally created as part of Thomas Hughes' famous novel "Tom Brown's Schooldays" published in 1910. It perfectly encapsulates the spirit of English literature and its timeless appeal to both children and adults alike. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported to a time when rules were meant to be broken and imaginations ran wild. The mischievous glint in each child's eye hints at secret plans involving this unusual purchase. Perhaps they envision themselves as daring rugby players or intrepid adventurers donning these magical cat-skins. Tarrant's skillful use of color brings vibrancy to every detail - from the vivid hues adorning the hats to the playful expressions on each boy's face. This print serves as a nostalgic reminder that childhood innocence knows no bounds, even within the confines of strict regulations. Incorporating elements such as shopping, school days, and children's literature
