EDITORS COMMENTS
Bounder-y!": A Delightful Snapshot of Three Debonair English 'Bounders' from Cricket Illustrated (circa 1903) Step back in time to the early 20th century and join three dapper English 'bounders' as they prepare for a day of mischief and amusement at the seaside, as depicted in this charming postcard from Cricket Illustrated. The image, titled "Bounder-y!", is a masterpiece by the renowned illustrator Bradshaw, showcasing the boundless spirit and camaraderie of these three gentlemen. The trio, dressed in their finest attire, exude an air of confidence and repute, with their stylish hats, crisp collars, and impeccably tailored suits. One gentleman, Percy, holds a pipe in his hand, while the other two, Vernon and an unnamed friend, engage in a playful banter, perhaps planning their next prank or 'lark'. The scene is set against the backdrop of the British seaside, with the sun casting a warm glow on the sand and the sea shimmering in the distance. The term 'bounder' or 'cad' was commonly used in the early 1900s to describe a man of questionable character or behavior, often one who was charming and debonair but also cunning and mischievous. These 'bounders' of the top drawer, with their spiv-like demeanor and conman-esque charisma, were the epitome of the carefree spirit of the era. This postcard is a delightful snapshot of a bygone era, capturing the essence of a time when men would gather at the seaside to let their hair down and enjoy the simple pleasures of life. The image, with its rich history and intriguing terminology, is a testament to the power of words and the stories they can tell.
