EDITORS COMMENTS
Step right up and feast your eyes on this delightful 20th-century comic postcard scene! Here we have a plump, middle-aged couple, each with a cigarette in hand, taking in the beautiful view of the seaside. The man, with a mischievous grin, seems to be enjoying the scenery a bit too much, perhaps even trying to catch the attention of the pretty, young woman sitting on the nearby rock. She, on the other hand, looks annoyed or maybe even a little angry, as if she's had enough of his advances. This humorous and lighthearted image is a classic example of the popular British Donald McGill postcards from the 20th century. McGill was known for his saucy and comedic illustrations, often featuring attractive women and men in various amusing situations. The seaside setting adds to the carefree and fun atmosphere, making this postcard a perfect representation of summer enjoyment. The plump couple's size is a common theme in McGill's work, adding to the comedic element and reflecting the era's perspective on body image. The couple's relaxed and playful interaction with each other and the pretty woman is sure to bring a smile to your face and transport you back in time to a simpler, more lighthearted era.
