EDITORS COMMENTS
A delightful 20th century comic postcard captures the playful spirit of childhood communication. In the image, a little girl in a frilly dress and shiny black shoes is shown in a rush to post a card, her curly ringlets bouncing behind her as she runs down the cobblestone street. With a determined look on her face and a letter clutched tightly in her hand, she wears a charming expression of excitement and anticipation. The humorous scene is further enhanced by the caption written at the bottom of the postcard, which reads: "Donald McGill's Verse: Hurry up, little girl, the post goes at five, And if you miss it, my dear, you'll be the one to grieve." This charming comic postcard is a fun and lighthearted reminder of the joy and importance of sending a letter or card to loved ones, even in the face of a tight deadline. The playful illustration and whimsical verse are sure to bring a smile to anyone's face, making it a cherished keepsake from a bygone era.
