The Unbearable Itch - A Nighttime Tale of Discomfort
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this delightfully humorous comic postcard from the 20th century, a man is depicted in an uncomfortable predicament as he scratches himself vigorously on his bed. The scene takes place in a dimly lit bedroom, with a crescent moon and the sea visible through an open window, suggesting a seaside holiday. The man, dressed in striped pyjamas, appears to be in the midst of a restless night, his expression a mix of frustration and relief as he scratches an itch that seems to be driving him mad. The man's discomfort is further emphasized by the presence of several insects buzzing around the room, adding to his unease. His old-fashioned bed, with its ornate headboard and intricate patterns, only serves to highlight his discomfort as he scratches away. This comically relatable scene is reminiscent of the works of British comic artist Donald McGill, who was known for his humorous and lighthearted postcards. The man's predicament is a universal one, and his exaggerated response to the itch is sure to bring a smile to the face of any viewer. The contrast between the peaceful nighttime setting and the man's discomfort adds to the humor, making this a fun and entertaining addition to any collection. The use of simple, clear lines and bold colors adds to the charm of this comic postcard, making it a delightful piece of visual storytelling from a bygone era. Whether displayed on a desk, framed on a wall, or sent to a friend as a joke, this comic postcard is sure to bring a smile to anyone who sees it.
