The Latest American Stunt - The Baby Balloon Takes Fun to New Heights
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photo print, we are transported back to the early 1920s, witnessing a truly bizarre and thrilling American craze. The image showcases a crowd of adults gathered around a colorful baby balloon, inflated with helium and tied securely to the ground. This peculiar invention allows those who dare to stick to it an exhilarating experience like no other - they can jump up to three or four meters high! As we observe the scene, men of all ages can be seen floating in mid-air, defying gravity with wide smiles on their faces. The atmosphere is filled with excitement and curiosity as people gather around this unique form of entertainment. It's evident that this new sport has quickly become popular during the summer season in America. Italian illustrator Achille Beltrame beautifully captures this momentous event for Courier Sunday on October 26th, 1924. His vibrant color litho brings out the joy and thrill experienced by these grown-ups indulging in their spare time recreation. As we delve into this snapshot from history, we are reminded of how leisure activities have evolved over time. This fascinating glimpse into early twentieth-century America highlights both our human fascination with adventure and our constant pursuit of enjoyment during moments of free time.
