Nipper Returns in Nostalgic Postcard from the United Nations
A charming postcard titled "Nipper is Back!" has arrived from James at the United Nations, featuring a whimsical rendition of the iconic "His Master's Voice" logo. The artwork, created in colored pencil on paper by Greg Otto in 1985, depicts the beloved terrier, Nipper, attentively listening to a gramophone atop a vibrant, cartoonish building.
Measuring 10"x6", the postcard is part of the collection of Mr. & Mrs. E. Scott Johnson. The familiar image of Nipper, forever associated with early sound recording and radio broadcasting, evokes a sense of nostalgia for the dawn of these technologies. The postcard's journey from the United Nations adds an intriguing layer to its story, connecting a piece of art history with a global perspective.
