EDITORS COMMENTS
Step right up, ladies and gentlemen, and feast your eyes on this delightful scene from a bygone era! This charming postcard, dating back to the late 1890s, transports us to the heart of a bustling Victorian circus. The ringmaster, with his top hat and whip, stands proudly at the center, directing the attention of his smartly-dressed audience. To one side, a clown with a painted face and oversized shoes, adds a touch of comic relief, while a monkey, perched on a ball, performs a daring acrobatic turn, much to the delight of the spectators. In the background, the circus band plays a lively tune, adding to the festive atmosphere. But the real surprise comes from the unexpected performers - a group of pigs, standing on their hind legs and wearing ribbons around their necks. The sight of these humanized animals, with their curly tails and beady eyes, brings a smile to the faces of the onlookers. With their playful antics and gentle demeanor, they add a unique charm to this circus performance. This postcard, with its intricate detail and vivid colors, offers a glimpse into the past, reminding us of a time when entertainment was simple, and the wonders of the circus could captivate the hearts and minds of people from all walks of life.
