EDITORS COMMENTS
- Man and Porter, Railway Platform, 20th Century This delightful comic postcard captures the humorous side of railway travel in the 20th century. The scene unfolds on a bustling railway platform, where a dapper gentleman in a hat and umbrella, dressed to the nines, is seen kneeling down to pick up his fallen items. A porter, dressed in his smart uniform, stands by, a knowing smile playing on his lips. The man's collection of belongings scattered around him includes a ticket, coins, keys, and a hat - all the essentials for a journey by train. But it seems that in his haste, he may have dropped more than just his belongings. A pile of money lies next to his items, suggesting that he may have accidentally dropped some cash as well. The porter, ever ready to help, offers a hand to the flustered gentleman. But as he does so, he can't help but let out a chuckle at the man's expense. The man, red-faced and embarrassed, looks up at the porter with a mix of relief and annoyance. This charming postcard is reminiscent of the classic British comic style of Donald McGill, known for its humorous and light-hearted take on everyday life. It's a fun and funny reminder of the simple joys and occasional mishaps of travel by train in the 20th century.
