EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Sheila Kaye-Smith, a renowned English writer of the 20th century. The image was captured in 1937 and is part of a collection of cigarette cards featuring famous British authors, published by WD & HO Wills. These promotional items were distributed by the Imperial Tobacco Company of Great Britain & Ireland Ltd. In this portrait, Sheila exudes an air of elegance and intellect. Her short brown hair frames her face beautifully as she gazes away from the camera with thoughtful eyes. Dressed in a stylish dress with a high collar, she epitomizes the fashion trends of the era. The photograph captures not only her physical appearance but also hints at her profession as a novelist. A signature below her image adds a personal touch to this collectible item. The Western script lettering provides additional context about her literary achievements. This print serves as both an advertisement for Wills cigarettes and a tribute to Sheila's contribution to English literature. It is fascinating how such small promotional cards can encapsulate so much history and culture within their limited space. As we admire this snapshot from the past, we are reminded of Sheila Kaye-Smith's significant impact on British literature during the 1930s and beyond.
