Guns Puppies Puppy Pups Rifle Rifles Year
EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this charming Victorian-era New Year card featuring a playful little pup and his toy gun. Dressed in red and white, the mischievous pooch sits proudly with a rifle in hand, adding a touch of excitement and fun to the celebration of the New Year. The intricately detailed illustration showcases the whimsical charm of the late 1800s, with the pup's expressive eyes and the elegant design of the card itself. The use of a toy gun may seem unusual by today's standards, but in the Victorian era, such imagery was common in children's toys and playthings. This delightful card is a reminder of a simpler time, when the joy of a New Year was marked by the company of cherished pets and the innocence of childhood. The David Pearson Collection at Mary Evans Picture Library preserves and shares these precious pieces of history, allowing us to appreciate the richness and depth of our past.
