EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Sweet Adeline - postcard series" takes us back to the early 20th century, specifically the 1920s. It belongs to a collection of postcards featuring the chorus of the popular song "Sweet Adeline" with lyrics by Richard H. Gerard and first published in 1903. The front of this vintage postcard showcases a snippet of the heartfelt lyrics: "Sweet Adeline, my Adeline, At night, dear heart, for you I pine". These words evoke a sense of longing and love that resonates even after all these years. The image itself transports us to an era marked by significant historical events such as World War I (1914-1918), also known as The Great War. This period was characterized by immense change and turmoil across the globe.
