Edward Gorey #17

The description on the back of card #17 says, “P is for Prue trampled flat in a brawl.” – from The Gashlycrumb Tinies by Edward Gorey. I’m not familiar with The Gashlycrumb Tinies but I assume this is P.

This cannot bode well for young P as she reaches for the saloon doorknob to go beyond the foreboding brick wall. Or maybe it’s worse to stay outside?

What story would you imagine for this scenario? I will send this postcard to one of you who leaves a comment. Just be sure to leave a way to reach you if you’re not registered or I don’t know who you are. Winner selected on Sept. 1, 2011.
