A Horse of a Different Tale - The Unintended Romance
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this delightful 20th-century comic postcard, a young, pretty woman in a stylish hat and dress waits impatiently in an open-top orange car. The hour hand of the clock above her head ticks away, signaling the passage of time. But what's that quirky detail in the foreground that adds an unexpected twist to this scene? Enter the mischievous horse, peering curiously into the car and extending its long, pink tongue for a lick on the woman's hand! The woman, taken aback by the horse's antics, looks surprised and amused, while her expression suggests a hint of flirtation. This charming postcard, reminiscent of the whimsical illustrations by Donald McGill, plays on the theme of mistaken identity and the unexpected twists life can bring. The woman, expecting a lover or a suitor, finds herself in an unexpected romantic encounter with a horse instead! The woman's cigarette dangles from her fingers, adding to the carefree, lighthearted atmosphere of the scene. The vibrant orange car and the lush greenery in the background create a picturesque setting, further enhancing the playful, humorous tone of the postcard. This quirky, fun, and funny comic postcard is a delightful snapshot of a bygone era, filled with humor, charm, and a touch of the unexpected. Whether sent as a lighthearted greeting or kept as a cherished keepsake, it's sure to bring a smile to anyone's face.
