A Canine Dilemma - The Tale of the Wasp and the Wag
EDITORS COMMENTS
This delightful 20th-century comic postcard captures the humorous and lighthearted side of pet ownership. The image features a concerned-looking dog, adorned with a blue ribbon, as it attempts to shake off an unwelcome visitor - a wasp perched precariously on its tail. The dog's worried expression and the determined look in its eyes convey the sense of urgency and anxiety that comes with trying to rid oneself of an unwanted pest. The humanized portrayal of the dog adds to the charm of this comic postcard. The dog's posture and facial expression are reminiscent of human emotions, making it relatable and endearing to viewers. The playful use of color, with the blue ribbon contrasting against the brown dog and the yellow wasp, adds to the overall visual appeal. The presence of the wasp adds an element of surprise and fun to the scene. Wasps are often seen as pests, and the idea of one landing on a dog's tail is both unexpected and amusing. The comic postcard captures the lightheartedness and humor in such a situation, making it a fun and enjoyable addition to any collection. This postcard is a testament to the British sense of humor and the enduring appeal of comic art. It reminds us of the simple joys of pet ownership and the everyday dilemmas that come with it. Whether you're a dog lover, a collector of comic art, or simply someone who appreciates a good laugh, this postcard is sure to bring a smile to your face.
