A Hilarious Snapshot of Middle-Aged Life: A Comic Postcard from the 20th Century This delightful comic postcard, hailing from the 20th century, captures the humorous side of middle-aged life with an amusing depiction of a couple in bed. The man, with a pained expression on his face, lies on his back, his feet sticking out from under the covers, while his wife, with a look of exasperation, sits up in bed, pointing at his corn-covered feet. The man's head, with a bandage and a groan etched on his face, is propped up on a pile of pillows, as if trying to alleviate a persistent headache. The woman, with a rolled-up newspaper in hand, looks ready to scold her husband for his neglected foot care. The caption below reads, "Wrong round again, dear! Your corns are getting rotten!" The man's response, written in thought bubbles above his head, reads, "I thought I heard you say 'round of beers'!" This charming postcard, reminiscent of the classic British humor of Donald McGill, brings a smile to our faces as we imagine the playful banter between this middle-aged couple. Whether it's a painful corn or a painful hangover, this comic postcard reminds us that even in the midst of life's little mishaps, there's always room for a good laugh.
