A Hilarious 20th Century Wedding Moment: Best Man's Double Entendre! This charming comic postcard captures the fun and lightheartedness of a wedding day in the 20th century. The best man, dressed in a stylish top hat, tailcoat, pinstripe trousers, and buttoned-up waistcoat, proudly holds up a cigar in one hand and a bouquet of flowers in the other. His mischievous grin and suggestive look towards the bride and groom suggest a double meaning behind his actions. The best man's cigar, with its phallic shape, might be interpreted as a symbol of his role as the wedding jester, or it could be a subtle nod to the bride's bouquet, which is traditionally meant to ward off unwanted advances from other men. The playful use of innuendo adds an entertaining layer to this classic wedding scene. The bride and groom, both dressed in elegant wedding attire, are shown in the background, smiling and looking on in amusement at the best man's antics. The church's stained-glass windows and the bride's beautiful veil add a romantic and whimsical touch to the image. This delightful comic postcard, created by the renowned British artist Donald McGill, is a perfect reminder of the joy and humor that can be found in even the most traditional of wedding ceremonies. With its clever use of double entendres and suggestive humor, this postcard is sure to bring a smile to your face and a laugh to your day!
