EDITORS COMMENTS
A delightful 20th century comic postcard capturing the playful and endearing moment of bedtime for two little girls. The image, filled with humor and fun, shows the girls huddled together in their cozy bedroom, each holding a teddy bear and reciting their nightly prayers. The older sister, with a mischievous grin, appears to be whispering something to her younger sister, who looks up at her in surprise. The caption above reads, "Donald McGill's 'Little Girls' Bedtime Prayer.' British comic artist Donald McGill was renowned for his humorous and lighthearted postcard designs, and this charming piece is a perfect example of his signature style. The girls' bedroom is adorned with soft pastel colors and delicate patterns, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The girls' nightgowns and bedsheets add to the whimsical charm of the scene. Despite the playful and lighthearted nature of the postcard, the girls' bedtime ritual remains a heartwarming and enduring symbol of childhood innocence and the importance of prayer and goodnight wishes. The teddy bears, symbolizing comfort and companionship, add to the sense of security and warmth that bedtime should bring. This vintage postcard is a delightful addition to any collection of comic art or nostalgic memorabilia, and is sure to bring a smile to the face of anyone who appreciates the simple joys of childhood and the power of a good night's sleep.
