1. Title: "A Shocking Surprise at the Greyhound Races: The Electrifying Adventure of 1926". Step back in time to the roaring 1920s and experience the electrifying thrill of greyhound racing as depicted in this comic postcard from 1926. The hares, not the greyhounds, are running by electricity, as Bill Is it ponders if he should have given his own dog a few shocks for a better chance at winning! The crowd, filled with spectators eagerly watching the race, is a testament to the popularity of this exhilarating pastime. With humorous undertones and a touch of fun, this comic postcard captures the excitement and unpredictability of greyhound racing during this era. The electric-powered hares add an unexpected twist to the traditional race, leaving Bill and the onlookers in a state of amusement and anticipation. The date on the postcard, 1926, further emphasizes the historical significance of this moment in time. So, gather your friends and family, and join Bill in the laughter and camaraderie that comes with a day at the greyhound races.
