EDITORS COMMENTS
A delightful snapshot from the 20th century, this comic postcard captures the playful spirit of childhood communication. A little girl in a pink dress and yellow hat, her cheeks rosy with excitement, reaches up to post a card in a red pillar box on the street. The card she's holding bears the image of a mischievous-looking boy with a quirky caption that reads, "Donald McGill's Verse - A little girl wrote a letter, And sealed it up with a kiss, But when she came to post it, She found it wouldn't go down the miss!" The girl's expression is one of determination and amusement as she attempts to push the card into the mail slot. The scene is filled with a sense of fun and whimsy, transporting us back to a simpler time when the act of sending a letter was an adventure in itself. This charming postcard is a testament to the enduring appeal of communication, even in its most quaint and humorous forms.
