EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to 1904 with this charming and humorous depiction of a Welsh Rabbit, or Rarebit as it's also known, being prepared in traditional Welsh attire. The anthropomorphic rabbit, donning a quaint bonnet and apron, proudly presents the steaming dish to an admiring audience. The Welsh Rabbit, a savory Welsh dish made with melted cheese and beer, was a popular dish in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. This postcard, with its amusing and lighthearted take on the dish and Welsh culture, is a delightful glimpse into the past. The intricate details of the rabbit's costume, from the lace trim on its bonnet to the delicate embroidery on its apron, add to the whimsical charm of the image. This postcard is not only a culinary curiosity but also a fascinating snapshot of Welsh history and tradition." "The Welsh Rabbit, or Rarebit as it's also known, was a popular dish in Wales and the border regions of England during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The name 'Welsh Rabbit' is believed to have originated from the fact that the dish was a vegetarian alternative to rabbit stew, which was a popular meat dish at the time. The dish is made by toasting bread, covering it with a cheese sauce made from melted cheese, beer, and mustard, and serving it with pickled onions or other accompaniments. This postcard, dated 1904, captures the essence of this beloved dish and the traditional Welsh culture in a fun and playful way." "The use of anthropomorphic animals in illustrations and advertising was a common trend during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. This postcard, with its charming depiction of a Welsh Rabbit in traditional Welsh costume, is a delightful example of this artistic style. The intricate details of the rabbit's costume, along with the warm and inviting image of the dish, make this postcard a must-have for anyone interested in Welsh history, folklore, or culinary traditions.
