EDITORS COMMENTS
is a charming and educational cut-out postcard from 1921, featuring the whimsical character of Dressing Doll. This delightful image invites children to engage in an imaginative and creative activity, allowing them to cut out the various garments and fit them on the body of the doll character. The postcard, which measures approximately 14.8 x 9.5 cm, is a testament to the power of simple pleasures and the joy of dressing up. The doll character, dressed in the traditional French tricolor outfit of blue, white, and red, embodies the spirit of patriotism and national pride. The intricate details of the garments, from the frilled collars to the striped sleeves, are sure to captivate young minds and spark their curiosity. The artist behind this delightful creation is Margaret Banks, whose name is not to be confused with the well-known company of the same name. Margaret Banks was a talented illustrator and designer, whose work graced many postcards, books, and other ephemera during the early 20th century. Her whimsical and imaginative style is on full display in this charming postcard. The "Vive La France" postcard is a wonderful example of the role that art and creativity played in the lives of children during the early 20th century. It invites us to take a step back in time and appreciate the simple joys of dressing up a doll, while also celebrating the rich cultural heritage of France. This postcard is not only a fascinating historical artifact but also a reminder of the enduring power of imagination and creativity.
