EDITORS COMMENTS
- A hilarious 20th-century comic postcard depicting a drunken man in Britain, making a comical mistake at the pillar box! This delightful postcard, with its charming vintage aesthetic, showcases a jovial, red-faced man in a hat and gloves, leaning against a street corner. His eyes are closed, and he clutches a bottle in one hand, while the other hand reaches out to the red pillar box. With a mischievous grin, he seems to be attempting to slip his bottle into the slot instead of his mail! The man's companions, a group of equally merry men, can be seen in the background, laughing heartily at their friend's antics. The scene is set against the backdrop of a dimly lit, quiet street, with the streetlights casting a warm, inviting glow. This postcard is a wonderful example of the humorous and lighthearted nature of comic postcards from the 20th century. It is reminiscent of the works of renowned British comic postcard artists like Donald McGill. The man's mistake, though innocent, adds an element of fun and amusement to the image. The man's teeth show in a wide, toothy grin, as he hugs the pillar box, perhaps mistaking it for a loved one. The postcard's caption, not visible in this image, likely adds to the humor, with a clever play on words or a witty observation. This charming postcard is a delightful reminder of the fun and lightheartedness of the past, and a testament to the enduring appeal of comic postcards as a form of visual storytelling.
