The Six English Tommies! Awesome card! Tommy is a term used to refer to the English soldier that has been in use probably since the 18th century, but is usually thought of as referring to English soldiers during World War One. Indeed, this card was probably published in the mid 1910s, and this dance troupe likely entertained the troops during that war. Their disheveled appearance, makeshift costumes, and sometimes ill fitting wigs, are unusual, but not so strange if you consider that they are quite possibly six British soldiers in drag, entertaining their fellows!

Postage is for first class shipping in a secure photo mailer, and we happily combine shipping on all paper goods. If you purchase two cards, we will refund the postage on the second card, and when you purchase three or more cards from us at the same time, your shipping will be entirely free, except for international orders which, because of sudden increases in international shipping rates will still be charged one card's shipping fees on orders of three or more.
