Here is an unsigned and uncredited card, but we know from others in the series that "They Never Come Back" cards were issued by Taylor Pratt Company as series #728, and of course the artist is our old friend, Albert Carmichael.
I like that Carmichael shows us that our subjects have been at quite the energetic couch-tussle by the bobbypins on the floor, some of which took some hair with them as they were removed! My stars.
Hello Allan-
ReplyDeleteThose are a bit of feminine accoutrement of that era, ready to wear curls, mounted on hairpins, called "RATS."
The figure on the left, walking — is that Willie leaving, or Father arriving? Or the cartoonist being confused?

I imagine it is Willie making a hasty retreat at the mention of her father...sadly never to come back.
