EDITORS COMMENTS
Caption: A Boy's Excessive Appetite on His Special Day! (20th century) This delightful comic postcard captures the playful essence of a child's birthday celebration gone a little awry. The little boy, dressed in a neat shirt and shorts, stands proudly before a large, towering cake adorned with candles and colorful decorations. With a gleeful grin on his face, he eagerly reaches for a massive slice of cake, his swelling stomach already hinting at the gluttonous feast to come. The knife in his hand seems insignificant compared to the mountain of cake before him. The humor in this image lies in the exaggerated portrayal of a child's insatiable appetite during their birthday celebration. The boy's swelling stomach and the oversized cake serve as a comical reminder of the excess and indulgence that often accompanies such joyous occasions. This charming postcard, with its British sensibility and lighthearted take on childhood, is a fun and nostalgic peek into the past. The image evokes feelings of nostalgia and joy, as we can all relate to the memories of indulging in birthday treats and the excitement of a special day filled with laughter and love. This comic postcard is a testament to the timelessness of childhood and the simple pleasures that make birthdays so memorable.
