EDITORS COMMENTS
This satirical postcard print from the early 20th century features a man in a suit holding out a dime with the caption "It's cheaper to give a dime than lend a dollar." The humorous illustration highlights the concept of generosity and financial prudence, suggesting that it is more cost-effective to simply give a small amount rather than loaning a larger sum.
The colourful lithograph captures the essence of American wit and humor, showcasing the clever play on words and visual pun. The image reflects societal attitudes towards money and charity during this time period, emphasizing the value of small gestures over grandiose displays.
Through its scathing satire and sharp commentary, this artwork invites viewers to reflect on their own attitudes towards giving and lending. It serves as a reminder that sometimes it is better to offer what we can afford without expecting anything in return.
As we navigate our modern world filled with economic challenges and uncertainties, this timeless message continues to resonate. The simple act of giving, no matter how small, can make a significant impact in someone's life. So next time you have the choice between giving a dime or lending a dollar, remember: it's always cheaper to be generous.
