EDITORS COMMENTS
by Hal Bevan Petman: A Delightful Scene of Flapper Socializing in the Roaring Twenties In this illustration by Hal Bevan Petman, titled "A Little Supper Party," we are transported back to the vibrant and carefree spirit of the Roaring Twenties. The front cover of The Bystander magazine, dated 1927, showcases a flirtatious flapper girl, who exudes confidence and charisma as she enjoys an evening out. The scene is set in a chic and sophisticated restaurant, where the soft glow of the overhead lights casts an alluring ambiance. The flapper girl, with her auburn hair cascading down her shoulders, sits at a table adorned with a single red rose. She raises a cocktail glass to her lips, her eyes playfully locked on those of an unseen admirer. A cigarette dangles from her fingers, adding to her allure. Despite the enticing title, it appears that the little supper party consists of little more than drinks and cigarettes. However, the flapper's radiant smile and the twinkle in her eye suggest that the real feast is the socializing and flirting taking place. Petman's illustration perfectly encapsulates the essence of the 1920s, a time of liberation and self-expression for women. The Petman Girls series, of which this illustration is a part, became iconic representations of the flapper era. This image is a testament to the enduring appeal of the flapper spirit and the allure of a little supper party.
