A Surprising Revelation,
EDITORS COMMENTS
20th Century Comic Postcard This delightful comic postcard captures the playful banter between two women as they recount an unexpected romantic encounter. The scene is set in a quaint British tea room, with the tall and slim young woman on the left sharing a story with her friend, who appears shocked and amused. The women's frumpy attire, complete with stockings, garters, and underwear peeking out from their frumpish dresses, adds to the humor and light-heartedness of the moment. The conversation between the women is filled with double entendres and verbal surprises, as the tall woman recounts the unexpected sight during her romantic rendezvous. The expression on her friend's face speaks volumes, as she tries to hide her shock and amusement. The artist, Donald McGill, masterfully captures the essence of the British sense of humor, with its witty wordplay and innuendos. This postcard is a testament to the enduring appeal of comic art and the human capacity for finding humor in the most unexpected places. The image is a charming reminder of a bygone era, where a simple conversation between two women could be the source of endless amusement and surprise.
