Choice of Underwear for Oxford Man
EDITORS COMMENTS
- A Hilarious 20th Century Comic Postcard This delightful comic postcard, titled "Choice of Underwear for Oxford Man," is a quintessential example of British humour from the 20th century. The image depicts a young, well-dressed Oxford man standing in a bedroom, surrounded by an array of underwear options laid out on a bed. A young maid, with a mischievous grin on her face, holds up a pair of frilly, lace-trimmed underwear and asks, "Which one, sir?" The man, looking rather bewildered and slightly amused, points to a plain, practical pair, saying, "I'll have the grey ones, thank you." The maid, not deterred, holds up another pair with a playful expression, "Are you sure, sir? The pink ones are very becoming." The man, now looking a bit uncomfortable, shakes his head and insists, "No, I'll stick with the grey ones." The maid, with a sly wink, replies, "As you wish, sir," before turning to leave the room, leaving the man to ponder his underwear choices in peace. This comical scene is reminiscent of the era's domestic servitude and the playful banter between masters and servants. The use of humour and the unexpected role reversal adds to the overall charm of the postcard. The charming illustrations and the witty dialogue make this a fun and entertaining piece that is sure to bring a smile to anyone's face. The "Choice of Underwear for Oxford Man" postcard is a delightful snapshot of a bygone era and a testament to the enduring appeal of British humour.
