EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitho print captures a moment of pure joy and innocence as a young girl sits in a soap box sledge, beaming with delight. The image, created by the American School in the 19th century, showcases the charm of ephemeral advertising art. The girl is dressed warmly in a fur coat and Russian hat, braving the cold winter weather. She sits gracefully on the sledge while a man kneels beside her, pulling it through the snowy landscape. Her pretty frilled dress peeks out from beneath her coat, adding an element of playfulness to the scene. In this nostalgic snow scene, we catch a glimpse of early American life as laundry hangs on lines nearby. The soap box serves both as an unconventional sled and an advertisement for B. T. Babbitt's Soap – perhaps suggesting that even during moments of leisure and fun, cleanliness remains important. The image exudes a sense of adventure and freedom; it transports us back to simpler times when children found joy in simple pleasures like riding down snowy hillsides. This charming artwork reminds us to cherish those carefree moments that bring smiles to our faces.
