EDITORS COMMENTS
Step right up and feast your eyes on this delightful 20th century comic postcard, titled "Couple in the Sea - A Hearty Greeting!" This humorous image captures the playful spirit of a plump couple enjoying a day at the seaside. The man, with a mischievous grin on his face, reaches out to give his wife a hearty slap on the bottom as she playfully tries to keep her feet above the water while wearing a striped bathing costume. The woman, with a rosy cheeked smile, seems to be enjoying the unexpected surprise, as she laughs and splashes water in response. This charming postcard, reminiscent of the classic British seaside holiday, is a perfect representation of the fun and lightheartedness of the 20th century. The couple's ample figures add to the comedic effect, making this postcard a true treasure for anyone with a sense of humor and a love for the past. The postcard is the work of renowned comic postcard artist Donald McGill, known for his humorous and often risqué designs. This particular image, with its playful and innocent depiction of a couple's affectionate banter, is a testament to McGill's ability to capture the essence of human relationships and the joy of a day at the beach. So, take a moment to appreciate this delightful snapshot of a bygone era and let the laughter and joy of this couple's hearty greeting bring a smile to your face!
