A Transport of Delight

The mythical conception of a bicycle using eggs for wheels favours this Victorian greeting card with a magical quality.

Humorous and witty, as always, the artist has created, in this card and those to follow, an endless never-never land of make-believe and fantasy.

This delightful artefact invokes recollections of those memorable and befitting British advertising slogans from the twentieth century: “You can be sure of Shell” and “Go to work on an Egg”.
