EDITORS COMMENTS
A Hearty Meal and a Generous Hostess: A 20th Century Scottish Comic Postcard This charming and humorous postcard, dated from the 20th century, depicts a plump Scotsman in full traditional Scottish regalia, complete with kilt, sporran, and a mischievous grin, sitting at a table in a boarding house. The landlady, an equally plump and jovial woman with a welcoming smile, serves him a steaming plate of what appears to be a hearty Scottish meal. The expression on the Scotsman's face suggests that he is thoroughly enjoying the meal, while the landlady seems to take pride in her culinary skills. The caption at the bottom of the postcard reads, "McTavish: 'What's the cost of this meal, landlady?' Landlady: 'A shilling a day, and a good appetite, my dear!'" This exchange between the Scotsman and the landlady adds to the light-hearted and fun atmosphere of the image. The postcard, which is part of the extensive collection of comic postcards from the renowned McGill publishing company, is a delightful representation of Scottish culture and hospitality. The image is sure to bring a smile to the face of anyone who appreciates a good joke and a hearty meal. Despite the humorous tone, the postcard also highlights the importance of a good appetite and the joy of a well-cooked meal, which are universal experiences that transcend cultural boundaries. This 20th-century comic postcard is a testament to the enduring appeal of Scottish traditions and the sense of humor that surrounds them.
