EDITORS COMMENTS
A delightful scene from the 20th century, captured in this charming comic postcard titled "Little boys and vicar. Please sir, we're forming a cricket club. Will you let us have one of the bats? The verger says you have in your belfry?" The image portrays a plump and surprised vicar, with a double-take expression on his face, as he is approached by a group of eager little boys, all holding cricket stumps and wearing their best cricket attire. One of the boys, with a mischievous grin, holds up a sign that reads "Please sir, we're forming a cricket club. Will you let us have one of the bats?" The boys' innocent request, however, seems to have taken the vicar by surprise, as the title of the postcard suggests that the bats in question are not to be found in the usual cricket equipment storage area, but rather in the belfry of the church. The double meaning of the word "bats" adds an extra layer of humor to the situation, as the boys' request for cricket equipment is met with a shocking and unexpected response from the vicar. This humorous and light-hearted postcard is reminiscent of the classic British humor of Donald McGill, and is sure to bring a smile to anyone's face. The boys' innocent and naive enthusiasm for cricket is contrasted with the vicar's surprise and confusion, making for a delightful and amusing scene that is sure to be a conversation starter. Whether displayed in a home or office, this postcard is a fun and quirky addition to any collection.
