'Cross Where the Road is CLEAR' - A Charming 'Cat and Mouse' Children's Road Safety Poster. Illustrated by EULALIE. No Date, but number at the foot of the poster = STI/46/I - so circa1946? . This date would make sense as though British born, Eulalie spent most of her life in America but returned to the UK in 1937 after divorce. Eulalie Minfred Banks (1895-1999) was an illustrator of children's books, illustrating over 50 children's books. She started her career in drawing at the age of 12 designing Christmas cards. In 1913 Banks published her first picture book, 'Bobby in Bubbleland'. This very large Road Safety Poster (30" x 19 3/4") is in full colour with an illustration of a cat peering around a corner while a clothed mouse carrying a bunch of flowers walks smiling, oblivious of any danger, towards a… Read More

Description:
Carmarthen, S. W. Wales: Unknown. Good with no dust jacket. 1889. N/A. Card. Delightful ephemeral dance card for the 'CARMARTHEN Quadrille Class Ball, New Year's Eve 1889'. A single card measuring 4.5" x 3" and printed in black and white on both sides. On the front it has the Carmarthen coat of arms with the details of the Ball in a decorative border and citing the Master of Ceremonies to be Mr. Geo. R. Lewis. Under tthe border it states 'Reporter, Carmarthen' - so assume this may have been a press invite? On the reverse it is laid out in 2 columns with the 'Programme' (of dances) on the left hand side and 'Engagements' on the right - for prospective dance partners to fill in their name. Sadly this is unfilled in...! The card is a little used and slightly grubby, but a lovely piece of social history. Wish the Quadrille class was still going - I'd be there to dance the Polka, or the Schottische, or the Parisian Quadrille, etc, etc! ! .… Read More
