EDITORS COMMENTS
Step right up, step right up, and witness the hilarious mishap of our jester in this late Victorian-era greetings card from the 1890s. The clown, dressed in his vibrant red and white costume, complete with a pointed hat adorned with a pom-pom, seems to have met an untimely end as he kicks and falls from the back of a donkey. The donkey, a common sight in circus and fairground entertainment of the era, appears unfazed by the clown's antics. The clown's painted face, with its exaggerated features and exaggerated expressions, adds to the humor of the scene. His ruff, a traditional part of the clown's outfit, flutters in the wind as he takes his tumble. The card's verse reads, "A clown's downfall is never final, for he always bounces back with a twirl and a grin!" This charming and historical card is a reminder of the rich tradition of clowning and circus entertainment that has captivated audiences for generations. The image, with its playful and whimsical tone, is sure to bring a smile to the face of any recipient, making it a perfect gift for any occasion.
