EDITORS COMMENTS
A Surprisingly Large Brood at the Insurance Office! (Circa 20th Century) This delightful comic postcard, published by the renowned British humourist Donald McGill, captures the unexpected chaos of a family visit to the insurance office. The scene at the counter is filled with fun and humor as a woman, looking rather dazed and surprised, attempts to manage six lively children. Three little boys, each with their own unique expressions of mischief and curiosity, are clinging to their mother's skirt, while three girls, with wide-eyed gazes and rosy cheeks, peek out from behind her. The man behind the counter, with an amused expression, seems to be trying to keep a straight face as he deals with this unexpectedly large family. The intricate details of the illustration, from the woman's exasperated expression to the children's playful antics, add to the overall humor and charm of the postcard. This humorous depiction of a family outing to the insurance office is a testament to the enduring appeal of McGill's comic art and the joy of unexpected surprises in everyday life.
