The Great Debate - A Boy in Shorts or Bottomless?
EDITORS COMMENTS
This delightful comic postcard from the 20th century, published by the renowned British humourist Donald McGill, captures the playful spirit of two young girls engaged in a lively discussion. The setting is a quintessential English seaside scene, complete with a sandy beach, colorful umbrellas, and a backdrop of a picturesque pier. The two girls, dressed in their Sunday best, sit on a bench, their expressions filled with intense concentration. One girl points to a little boy in the distance, who is playing in the sand, wearing only shorts. The other girl, with a knowing smile, looks at her companion and confidently asserts, "He'd look much better without those shorts, I'll bet!" The humor in this postcard lies in the double entendre of the girls' conversation, which can be interpreted as both an innocent comment about the boy's attire and a more mischievous one. The split-hole design of the postcard adds to the fun, allowing the viewer to peek in on the girls' secretive conversation. The charming illustration style of this postcard is reminiscent of the classic British humor of the time, with its exaggerated expressions and exaggerated situations. The use of humor and innuendo in the image adds to its appeal and makes it a fun and lighthearted addition to any collection. This postcard is a testament to the enduring appeal of British humor and the simple joys of a day at the seaside. It is a perfect reminder of a bygone era and a delightful glimpse into the past.
