- Description
Shows a woman with her golf-bag over her shoulder, smiling cheerfully as she prepares to leave for the golf-course. At her feet is her husband who is wearing a pinafore and grimacing as he scrubs the floor. On the wall is a calendar that reads, 'May 12 - Mothers Day' and below is the word 'tomorrow'. Context - To celebrate Mothers Day, the woman plays golf while her husband scrubs the floor. Odd really, she is not HIS mother!
This cartoon is the front page of the 'Sports Post'. Have calculated the year to be 1946 from May 12 being a Mothers Day Sunday. The date of the paper would be Saturday May 11 1946
