EDITORS COMMENTS
A Time for Cricket, But not when On the Queens Business". This engraving from the 19th century captures a poignant moment in history. The scene depicts a young boy, dressed in his cricket whites, holding a bat in one hand while clutching a bundle of letters in the other. His face reflects both pleasure and responsibility as he stands on the grounds of a cricket field. The illustration serves as an illustration for Home Words magazine from 1891, shedding light on the complex realities of life during that era. It portrays the juxtaposition between leisurely pursuits like cricket and the demands of work, specifically within the postal service. In this image, we witness child labor at its core - children being forced to take up employment at an early age due to economic circumstances. The boy's presence on the cricket ground is overshadowed by his duty to deliver mail efficiently and promptly. This artwork raises important questions about societal norms surrounding child labor and highlights how even moments meant for enjoyment can be tainted by obligations tied to business enterprises. It serves as a reminder of how crucial it is to address issues such as workers' rights and fair treatment across all industries. Through this powerful visual representation, we are reminded that there was indeed "A Time for Cricket" but unfortunately not when "On the Queens Business.
