EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and nostalgic print captures a fascinating piece of history from the early 20th century. Titled "Ladies fan, Horlicks advertising scorecard, postcard, c1910" this image showcases a beautifully designed promotional item that was popular during its time. The focal point of the photograph is an intricately decorated ladies' fan adorned with colorful illustrations and text promoting Horlicks, a well-known brand in the early 1900s. The fan doubles as a scorecard for card games or golf matches, making it both practical and stylish. Surrounding the fan are various other items that add to the charm of this snapshot from yesteryears. A vintage postcard featuring similar advertising artwork lies nearby, showcasing how companies utilized postal services for promotion back then. Additionally, there is golf equipment including a golf bag and score recorder present in the frame – indicative of women's involvement in sports during this era. The composition exudes femininity with its emphasis on female figures depicted on both the fan and postcard. It serves as a testament to women's growing presence in society at that time. While we may not know who specifically created this piece or its intended purpose beyond advertisement and communication, it remains an intriguing artifact that offers us glimpses into pastimes enjoyed by people over a century ago.
