Emma – A Victorian Maid
Of all the maids, Emma – A Victorian Maid taken from Kaoru Mori’s “Emma” is my favourite which often features in cosplay and became an Anime television series “Emma – A Victorian Romance,” however I think Emma must have had a few secrets 😮
The final maid challenge
Rincewind has risen to the maid challenge by employing Autumn, but my view is that she would only have limited uses.
Following my last post in this saga my maid left to take up an engagement with the delightful Belle de Jour, as a recipient of her “talents” I’m sure she will be much in demand.
In desperation to find a suitable replacement the agency suggested the talented Jasmine but due to a misunderstanding the booking was cancelled. I engaged what I though would be an accommodating trio of maids but they proved to be much too much trouble and required some severe restraint to keep them focused and they soon left my employment. Jade put in a brief appearance but on close inspection she didn’t have the qualities I require. Simone’s tenure was equally brief. My spirits were lifted when Miss Samantha brought Rose, however I soon discovered that her previous employer, Mr De Sade had some strange tastes which although entertaining failed to demonstrate the standard I required. Rosaleen spent only a few hours in my employment and although very fetching in her uniform, continually left buttock smear on my glass which was clearly unacceptable.
I have to conclude that perhaps my expectations are either too high or unrealistic, I desire an Edwardian maid, one created in the theatre by Miss Elliott or the image of Emma, created by Kaoru Mori. With this in mind the agency eventually came to my rescue with a delightful maid with qualities I desire, appropriate style of dress, attentive and able to meet my needs. With my quest over and the holy grail of domestic servant has been found I can content myself in the certain knowledge that my dear friend Rincewind will have to content himself with a latex substitute.
Gertrude Elliott
Gertrude Elliott (1874 – 1952) shown as Stasia in Jerome K. Jerome’s “The Passing of the Third Floor Back” (1908).
The maid’s uniform is the traditional style that most people associate with a maid of the Victorian era.
This image of Miss Elliott looks very much like “Emma” in Kaoru Mori’s historical romance later becoming an Anime television series “Emma – A Victorian Romance”.
About
My wife, bless her tells me that I am rapidly becoming, or perhaps that should read have become a “Grumpy old fart”, so what better forum to spread my doom, gloom and paranoia than WordPress. I also have a love of old pictures, postcards and Edwardian Actresses, in particular Miss Gabrielle Ray which I hope to share at regular intervals. As my collection has grown I have set up another blog which contains only pictures of Miss Ray. Gabrielle Ray Thank you for viewing and comments are welcome.
