The Nervous Groom and the Howling Boy
EDITORS COMMENTS
- A humorous 20th-century comic postcard from the Mary Evans Picture Library captures the anticipation and excitement of a wedding day with a touch of British humor. The image shows a groom, dressed in a sharp tails suit, standing nervously at the altar, looking anxiously towards the pews filled with guests. In the foreground, a little boy, also dressed in a miniature version of the groom's attire, is having a fit of tears and howls, causing quite a commotion. The bride, out of the frame, is likely keeping a calm composure, knowing full well that such unexpected events are all part of the wedding day experience. The congregation, amused by the scene, can be seen smiling and chuckling in the background. This charming postcard, reminiscent of the works of renowned British humorists like Donald McGill, adds a light-hearted and fun twist to the traditional wedding scene. With its humorous take on the wedding day jitters and the unexpected antics of children, this comic postcard is sure to bring a smile to the faces of its recipients.
