EDITORS COMMENTS
: A Cautionary Tale of the Changes Marriage and Children Bring - A humorous and illustrated postcard from 1906, featuring a comic take on the unexpected increase in footwear that comes with marriage and starting a family. At the heart of this charming postcard is a simple yet profound observation: marriage and children bring about significant changes, and it's essential to be prepared for the consequences. The image shows a man, represented by a single pair of boots, standing alone. But when he marries Sallie, as depicted by the second pair of boots, their union brings about a new reality. And when they welcome little ones into their family, the number of pairs of boots multiplies, symbolizing the added responsibilities and joys that come with parenthood. This comic postcard serves as a subtle yet illustrative reminder of the growth and transformation that marriage and children bring. With a touch of humor and fun, it encourages us to embrace the changes that life throws our way and to be prepared for the unexpected. So, as you embark on the journey of love and family, remember the tale of the man with the growing number of boots, and leap into the adventure with eyes wide open!
