Market Reports - English Country Squire carves the beef
Market Reports illustrated (Postcard series):
MEAT: " English beef was in fine condition."
This report on English beef (as a commodity traded on the Stock Exchange) is illustrated by a ruddy and rotund Eglish Country Squire taking great delight in the serving of probably the largest joint of beef you can imagine! Thankfully it does not appear it is all destined for his luncheon as there are other plates to be filled...!

FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 23x19 inches (584x482mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

English Beef - A Feast for the Market and the Table
EDITORS COMMENTS
This delightful postcard from the early 20th century showcases a jovial English Country Squire in the midst of carving a colossal joint of beef. The scene, set in a rustic dining room, exudes an air of affluence and satisfaction. The Market Reports of the time declare that "English beef was in fine condition," and this image perfectly encapsulates the pride and joy associated with this commodity. The squire, with his rosy cheeks and tweed jacket, radiates contentment as he expertly wields his carving knife, slicing through the immense joint with ease. His happy expression and the abundance of plates on the table suggest that this is not a solitary meal, but a grand feast. The napkin tucked into his jacket and the gleam in his eye further emphasize the jovial and satirical nature of the scene. The sideboard in the background is laden with a variety of dishes, including ribs, cheeks, and steaks, indicating the extensive range of cuts available in the English beef market. The large platter, adorned with the succulent roast, is a testament to the immense size and quality of the beef being traded on the Stock Exchange. This postcard, with its comic and humorous take on the English Country Squire carving a mammoth joint of beef, is a charming reminder of the pride and satisfaction associated with the English beef industry during this era.
