EDITORS COMMENTS
Step right up to the window and place your bets! In this charming 1940s American cartoon, a Scotsman donning traditional tartan attire and a kilt enthusiastically places a wager on the underdog at the dog track. With two dollars in hand, he confidently puts his money on the rabbit to win the race. The shocked and amused onlookers, including the race announcer, can't believe what they're seeing. The Scotsman's quirky and humorous bet adds a touch of excitement to the greyhound races. The dog track, a popular form of entertainment during the 1940s in the United States, comes alive with the sounds of barking dogs and the cheers of the crowd. The atmosphere is electric as the greyhounds prepare for their runs, each one vying for the chance to cross the finish line first. This comic illustration not only captures the essence of American sports culture during the 1940s but also highlights the historical significance of the greyhound races. The Scotsman's eccentric bet adds a layer of humor and intrigue to the scene, making it a beloved piece of American cartoon history.
