EDITORS COMMENTS
This cartoon print, titled "Coiffure in the Trenches: 'Keep yer ead still, or I'll have yer blinkin' ear off!'" is a poignant and humorous depiction of life in the trenches during World War 1, as chronicled by the Mary Evans Picture Library from Mary Evans Prints Online. Dated back to 1916, this cartoon captures the essence of the daily struggles and camaraderie that soldiers endured amidst the horrors of the battlefield. The image shows a barber, dressed in a military uniform, meticulously trimming the hair of a soldier in the foreground while another soldier, with a nervous expression, clutches his helmet in the background. The barber, with a determined look on his face and a pair of shears in hand, shouts out the warning, "Keep yer ead still, or I'll have yer blinkin' ear off!" The caption adds to the humor and tension of the situation, as the soldier in the hot seat braces himself for the impending trim. The presence of a shell exploding in the distance, with smoke billowing in the background, serves as a stark reminder of the realities of war. The soldiers' makeshift trench setting, complete with muddy surroundings and discarded equipment, further emphasizes the harsh conditions they faced. This cartoon is a valuable historical document that offers a unique perspective on the daily life and morale of soldiers during World War 1. It also highlights the importance of maintaining a sense of humor and camaraderie in the face of adversity. The print is a testament to the resilience and resourcefulness of the human spirit, even in the most challenging of circumstances.
