There are many versions of this duo throughout the 20th Century, and some of the dogs look more like JRT's than others.

 JACK RUSSELL NOSTALGIA

Jack Russell Terriers in History

The popular personality of the Jack Russell Terrier is often depicted in advertising and product packaging from Victorian times to the present.

Please Note: Some may be other terriers or products of the artists imagination. Many cards and tins do not state the breed of the dog.

The term Fox Terrier had a very broad meaning from the early 1800's to the 1900's. Many working terriers had a more Jack Russell Terrier appearance and would not have fit the Fox Terrier breed show standard, but were still referred to as a "fox terrier".
A distinctive "terrier character" is frequently depicted to add interest or drama to some pictures. This terrier was mostly white, with black or tan patches, and short turned-down ears. A broad breed interpretation may have been intended, for the purpose of having a more widespread appeal.

The best representations of Jack Russell Terriers are in the postcards that are copies of Painters from the mid 19th Century and early 20th Century.

JRT's permeate many images, even those depicting other breeds or subjects. There are many examples of this in John Emms paintings, where studies of Fox Hounds, for example, will show a singular Jack Russell in their company.

From such depictions it becomes apparent that the Jack Russell Terrier was very much part of the landscape in Rural England in the last 200 years.
