EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming and humorous photograph captures the essence of a classic Scottish joke from the early 1900s, featuring a tight-fisted Scotsman who cannot resist the allure of six beautiful young women requesting a drink. Dressed in traditional Scottish attire, complete with a tartan kilt, sporran, and sturdy boots, the Scotsman's stern expression gives way to surprise and amusement as he reaches into his sporran to produce a coin, only to watch it disappear in the blink of an eye as the women surround him. The joke, which goes, "It wasn't long here till bang went sixpence!" plays on the stereotypical notion of Scottish frugality and the belief that Scotsmen are particularly stingy with their money. Lampooning this stereotype with a touch of fun and silliness, this image is a delightful snapshot of the past and a reminder of the enduring power of a good joke to bring people together. Dating back to 1910, this photograph is a must-have for anyone with an interest in Scottish history, folklore, or humor.
