EDITORS COMMENTS
'Two's Company, Three's a Smack' - A Delightfully Double-Entendre Seaside Scene from the 20th Century This charming comic postcard, dated from the 20th century, captures the playful spirit of a classic British seaside holiday. The image features two plump, middle-aged women, clad in their colorful swimming costumes, wading in the cool, clear waters of the sea. Their faces are filled with anticipation and excitement as they wait for something to happen. The title of the postcard, 'Two's Company, Three's a Smack,' adds a delightful layer of humor to the scene. The term 'smack' can be interpreted in two ways - a boat used for fishing or a derogatory term for an unwelcome advance or comment. The women's expressions and body language suggest that they are eagerly awaiting the arrival of a fishing smack, but the double meaning of the title adds a fun, flirtatious twist to the image. The women's voluminous swimming costumes, with their frilly collars and full skirts, are reminiscent of the fashion of the time. Their laughter and joy are infectious, making this postcard a perfect representation of the carefree, sunny days of summer holidays by the sea. This comic postcard is a testament to the enduring appeal of the British seaside and the humor and camaraderie that can be found in the simplest of moments. Whether you're a fan of the beach, boats, or a good pun, this postcard is sure to bring a smile to your face.
