Supply and Demand - The Price of Poultry
EDITORS COMMENTS
(Comic Postcard, 20th Century) This delightfully humorous comic postcard from the 20th century, published by the renowned British firm, Donald McGill, offers a light-hearted take on the economic concept of supply and demand, specifically as it relates to the price of poultry. The scene unfolds in a quintessentially rural setting, with a farmer, dressed in a checked suit and carrying a basket of chickens under his arm, encountering a well-dressed man on the side of the road. The man, with a shocked expression, exclaims, "By Jove, I've heard of high prices, but this is ridiculous!" The farmer, with a mischievous grin, replies, "Ah, but you see, my good man, it's all a matter of relative relativity. These here chickens are in great demand, and as you can see, the supply is rather limited. I've only got four left, and they're going for a pretty penny. Now, if you'll excuse me, I've got to go and see about my pig. He's been holding out for water again!" The man, looking at the hanging chickens in the basket, looks back at the farmer with a quizzical expression and asks, "And just how much are these chickens going for, may I ask?" The farmer, with a twinkle in his eye, replies, "Well, my friend, if you must know, they're going for a price that's hotter than the infernal regions themselves!" The man, looking both surprised and amused, nods in agreement and continues on his way, leaving the farmer to sell his precious poultry at an exorbitant price. This charming comic postcard offers a fun and humorous take on the economic concept of supply and demand, while also showcasing the unique charm and humor of 20th-century British comic art.
