EDITORS COMMENTS
Amidst the chaos and turmoil of the First World War, even the most mundane moments of daily life took on a humorous and lighthearted tone, as evidenced by this charming comic postcard from circa 1918. The scene depicts a couple in their bedroom, nestled under the covers and seemingly oblivious to the chaotic battle unfolding between their two cats on the bed. The cats, with their exaggerated expressions and exaggeratedly large paws, engage in a fierce and comical fight, their tails swishing and claws extended. The man and woman, dressed in the fashion of the 1910s, watch the scene unfold with amusement, their faces a picture of delight and amusement. The postcard, which bears the signature of renowned British comic artist Donald McGill, is a testament to the enduring power of humor to bring joy and levity to even the most trying of times. With its charming illustrations and playful sense of fun, this postcard offers a delightful glimpse into the lives of ordinary people during the First World War.
