EDITORS COMMENTS
A delightful comic postcard from the 20th century capturing the playful antics of a courting couple on the beach. The image, reminiscent of the Edwardian era, features a young, pretty woman in a flowing dress and a dapper man in a suit and straw boater, both with rosy cheeks and beaming smiles. The setting sun casts a warm glow over the scene as they sit on a rocky outcrop, with the crashing waves and towering cliffs in the background. The couple seems to be engaged in a friendly competition, with the man attempting to steal a kiss from his girlfriend while she playfully tries to keep him at bay. The man's outstretched arm and determined expression contrast sharply with the woman's amused reaction and defensive posture, making for a humorous and lighthearted moment. The postcard, produced by the renowned British comic illustrator Donald McGill, is a testament to the enduring appeal of love and romance. With its charming illustration and witty caption, this postcard would have brought a smile to the faces of its recipients and added a touch of whimsy to their correspondence. Whether sent as a gift to a loved one or kept as a memento, this comic postcard remains a fun and funny reminder of the joys of courting and the simple pleasures of a day at the seaside.
