EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and comical print titled "Naething the matter wi me" captures a humorous scene from early 20th century Scotland. Taken by an English photographer, this coloured photograph showcases a satirical drawing of a Scottish man in a retail shop, adding to its historical charm. The image depicts a jovial chemist's shop, where our protagonist Sandy stands confidently behind the counter. With his mischievous grin and playful demeanor, he seems to mock traditional medicine with his amusing antics. The cartoon-like elements add to the overall lightheartedness of the scene. The postcard format adds an extra layer of entertainment value as it was likely shared among friends for laughs or used as comic relief during that era. The caption on the postcard reads "Naething the matter wi me" suggesting that Sandy is impervious to any ailments or troubles. This satirical cartoon not only provides amusement but also offers scathing satire towards medical science and services at that time. It pokes fun at pills, tonics, and ointments while playfully challenging their effectiveness. With its rich historical context and clever caricature style, this photograph is sure to entertain viewers who appreciate both humor and nostalgia. Whether displayed in homes or galleries, this piece invites us to reflect on how healthcare has evolved over time while reminding us not to take ourselves too seriously.
