Caption Competition

Captioned Panel #13
#13

Welcome to The Public Domain Review caption competition! Each month we offer up an image calling out for verbal adornment and you — the cunning, witty, and imaginative reader — submit your caption via the comments on the relevant Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter post (or, if you’re not on social media, by emailing captions@publicdomainreview.org).

From the entries a worthy winner will be chosen and rewarded with their choice of either: i) a selection of postcards from our back catalogue; or ii) a whopping 20% discount in our prints shop!

This month’s competition — #13 — is open until March 9th.

Happy captioning!
