The Angry Mistress and the Disappearing Servant
EDITORS COMMENTS
- A Humorous 20th Century Comic Postcard This delightful comic postcard, hailing from the 20th century, showcases a classic and amusing scene of a servant and an angry mistress. The image, brought to you by the renowned British satirical illustrator Donald McGill, is a testament to the humor and wit that once graced postcards. The scene is set in a quaint, middle-class British home. In the foreground, a plump, middle-aged woman, her face flushed with anger, is wearing a red apron and a pinafore. She is holding a sewing needle with a scowl on her face, as if ready to sew a button back on her husband's trousers. Her misty-eyed gaze is fixed on the door, where her husband, the servant, is making a hasty escape. The servant, a young man with a mischievous grin, is wearing braces and a purple dress, giving him the appearance of a woman in drag. He is making a quick exit, disappearing behind the door, leaving the angry mistress alone with her sewing. The humor in this postcard lies in the unexpected role reversal, as the servant, traditionally a subservient figure, is the one causing mischief and escaping the wrath of his mistress. The use of exaggerated features, such as the plumpness of the mistress and the oversized dress of the servant, adds to the comedic effect. This charming postcard is a reminder of a bygone era, when humor and satire were an integral part of everyday life. It is a fun and light-hearted depiction of the relationships between men and women, masters and servants, and the amusing antics that could ensue in the confines of a British home.
