EDITORS COMMENTS
A Hilarious Encounter: Woman Driver Meets Policeman (Comic Postcard, Early 20th Century) This delightful comic postcard captures the playful spirit of the early 20th century with its humorous portrayal of a woman driver and a policeman. The scene unfolds on a bustling city street, where a middle-aged woman confidently stands behind the wheel of her car, ready to take on the road. A policeman, equally determined, approaches her with a stern expression, extending his hand towards a Belisha beacon. The caption above the image reads, "Question: Why did the policeman stop the woman driver? Answer: To ask her the time!" This double entendre adds an extra layer of amusement to the scene, as the policeman's hand gesture towards the beacon can be interpreted as checking the time or signaling for the woman to stop. The comic postcard is reminiscent of the Donald McGill postcards, a popular British series known for their light-hearted and often risqué humor. The woman driver and policeman image not only showcases the changing roles of women in society during this era but also highlights the playful banter between men and women, as well as the importance of traffic regulations. This charming postcard is a fun and whimsical reminder of the past, inviting us to appreciate the simple joys of life and the power of a well-timed pun.
