EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming Comic German postcard, dated 1909, depicts a humorous scene at a health spa. In the image, a doctor identified as Franz Whonpfeng, dressed in formal attire and wearing a stern expression, examines a female patient who appears to be grossly overweight. The patient, with a look of determination on her face, holds out her arm as the doctor listens intently with a stethoscope. The doctor's bulging eyes and exaggerated facial expressions add to the comedic effect, while the patient's large size and the doctor's small stature create a visual contrast. The scene is set against a backdrop of lush greenery and a serene spa setting, suggesting that even in the midst of health and wellness, humor and light-heartedness can be found. This postcard, with its clever use of humor and visual storytelling, offers a glimpse into the everyday life and cultural sensibilities of the early 1900s." "The postcard, produced in Germany, is a testament to the popularity of comic postcards during this era. It is a reminder of the importance of self-care and the role of humor in health and wellness, even in the context of medical treatment. The image of the doctor and patient also challenges societal norms and stereotypes surrounding body image and obesity, offering a unique perspective on the history of health and wellness in the early 20th century." "This postcard, with its intriguing and amusing depiction of a doctor's visit, is a must-have for collectors of vintage postcards, history enthusiasts, and anyone interested in the cultural and social history of Germany during the early 1900s.
