EDITORS COMMENTS
A delightful postcard illustration from the early 20th century, capturing the playful spirit of a classic winter pastime - snowballing at Christmas time. In this charming image from Series 5078, artist Alfred Edward Philp depicts a young girl hiding behind a tree, shielding herself from the onslaught of snowballs. Her rosy cheeks and mischievous smile suggest that she has been enjoying the snowy scene herself, but now seeks refuge from her playful companions. The soft, muted colors and intricate details of the snow-covered landscape add to the idyllic and nostalgic feel of the scene. The date of this postcard is estimated to be around 1910, making it a precious piece of history that transports us back in time to a simpler era. This beautiful illustration is a wonderful reminder of the joy and laughter that snowballing can bring during the festive season, and a perfect way to spread holiday cheer.
