EDITORS COMMENTS
A Delightful Misunderstanding: A 20th Century Comic Postcard In this charming and humorous 20th century postcard, a couple is seen engrossed in a concert poster, their expressions revealing a blissful ignorance to the double entendre hidden in plain sight. The poster, advertising a chamber music recital, features an orchestra in full swing, with the words "Pot Pourri" prominently displayed. The man, dressed in a smart suit, and the woman, wearing a red dress, lean in close to each other, their heads almost touching, as they read the poster aloud to one another. The man, with a mischievous grin, points to the word "pot" and says, "Darling, did you know that this recital is going to be held in a pottery?" The woman, equally amused, looks up at him and replies, "My dear, I think you'll find it's actually going to be in a 'pot pourri' of musical genres." Their shared laughter and the playful banter between them add to the light-hearted and fun atmosphere of the scene. The poster, with its intriguing title and the couple's misunderstanding, makes for a delightful and comical moment that is sure to bring a smile to anyone's face. This British postcard, reminiscent of the works of Donald McGill, is a perfect example of the verbal double meanings and misunderstandings that were popular in comic postcards of the 20th century. The image of the couple, with their heads close together and their eyes focused on the poster, is a testament to the power of communication and the importance of not taking things too seriously. So, the next time you come across a poster with a seemingly innocent title, take a closer look and see if there's a hidden meaning waiting to be discovered. And who knows, you might just find yourself in a delightful misunderstanding of your own!
