EDITORS COMMENTS
A delightful 20th century comic postcard captures the playful banter and romantic bliss of a sailor and his girlfriend on a moonlit night. The image, brought to you by the renowned British humourist Donald McGill, features a dapper sailor in full naval uniform, gazing longingly at his young, pretty girlfriend. She, in turn, is dressed in a red dress with stockings and suspenders, her leg casually crossed over a knee, as she teasingly looks up at the stars with a coy smile. The crescent moon and twinkling stars add to the dreamy, romantic atmosphere, while the sailor's thought bubble reveals the double entendre of his inner monologue: "I'll bet the stars are beautiful tonight... but nothing can beat you, darling!" The lighthearted, fun, and funny comic postcard is a testament to the enduring charm of British seaside humor and the simple joys of a holiday by the sea.
