EDITORS COMMENTS
Step right up and experience the thrill of a lifetime on the 'Seaside Sensation'! This delightful comic postcard from the 20th century invites us to join a jolly group of plump ladies and gentlemen as they enjoy a day at the seaside. The large woman in the foreground, dressed in a vibrant red frock, looks absolutely shocked as her companion offers her a ride on one of the 'Bath Chairs for Hire.' With a double meaning that is both humorous and funny, this entendre is sure to bring a smile to your face. The man in the background, with a mischievous grin, seems to be enjoying the scene, while the other men and women on the promenade go about their business, seemingly oblivious to the amusing situation unfolding before them. The railings and blowsy flowers add to the quintic feel of this charming British scene, reminiscent of the works of Donald McGill, a famous postcard artist known for his saucy and comedic illustrations. This postcard is a delightful reminder of the simple pleasures of a day at the seaside, and the unexpected humor that can be found in everyday life. Whether you're looking to add a touch of whimsy to your home decor or simply want to bring a smile to someone's face, this comic postcard is sure to be a hit!
