I Dreamt I was Married! (A Humorous Comic Postcard from the 20th Century) In this delightfully amusing comic postcard from the 20th century, a man is depicted lying in bed, wide-eyed and shocked, with a look of pure disbelief on his face. The caption above his head reads, "I Dreamt I was Married! Good Heavens!" The scene is set in a cozy bedroom, with a crescent moon shining through an open window. The woman in the bed next to him, also surprised, looks at him with a mixture of amusement and sympathy. She is dressed in a pretty nightgown and has a serene expression on her face, as if she's used to her husband's nighttime antics. The couple, both young and newlywed, seem to be on their honeymoon, judging by the romantic setting. The man, however, is in a state of shock. He covers his head with the bedsheets, as if to protect himself from the horrifying reality of his dream. The expression on his face is priceless - a perfect blend of shock, disbelief, and dread. The artist, Donald McGill, expertly captures the essence of a man's worst nightmare - waking up to the realization that he's actually married! This comic postcard is a testament to the humor and lightheartedness of British popular culture in the 20th century. It's a fun and funny reminder that even in the most joyful and romantic moments of life, there can be unexpected surprises and challenges. And sometimes, all it takes is a good laugh to help us face them with a smile.
